Plants for Life International is a Kenya registered NGO that is replanting about 50 acres with indigenous forest. We have collected, conserved and recorded around 1000 plant species of which over 250 are native trees of the uplands of Kenya.

The project addresses the following issues.

- Loss of indigenous plant and animal biodiversity in upland Kenya

- Loss of indigenous knowledge on indigenous and medicinal plants

- Environmental education

- Carbon sequestration using indigenous forest rather than exotic tree species

-- Domestication, cultivation and harvesting of medicinal plants

- Income generation from indigenous medicinal plants

- Ecotourism

- Watershed protection

- Collection of rare, threatened, vulnerable and endangered plant species from forest and upland biomes under threat (e.g. W. Mau)
