Tree Planting Project at Nadur Primary School – January 2025
Collaborating with Communities for a Greener Gozo
With less than 2% forest cover in Malta, Siġar is committed to enriching Gozo’s landscapes through sustainable tree planting. Our projects will complement other larger afforestation initiatives by focusing on urban areas.
By planting the right tree, in place, in the right way, Siġar will seed and share best practices with its volunteers and members of the public
