Time will show which species grow well and bear fruit on these alkaline limestone-based soils. We are adding vermicast to help manage the pH.
This shrub land measures ~1.5 ha. Before trees and shrubs were harvested for firewood, posts, and leaves for livestock fodder. We have now fenced the area and tugas/molave and other native trees and bushes are quickly growing back.
