In line with its continuing commitment to environmental conservation and forest restoration, the Bessang Pass Natural Monument Landmark (BPNML) Staff of CENRO Tagudin successfully conducted a Tree Planting Activity at Sitio Bessang, Brgy. Malaya, Cervantes, Ilocos Sur.
The activity was participated in by the Grade 6 learners of Zigzag Pines Elementary School, led by their School Head, Mr. Junnifer Fecha, together with the Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Officials of Brgy. Malaya, Cervantes, headed by Barangay Captain Imelda Dalay-on.
Prior to the tree planting activity, a brief orientation was conducted by Protected Area Superintendent (PASu) Bonie Budeng, who highlighted the significance of forest restoration, biodiversity conservation, and the shared responsibility of every individual in protecting and conserving the environment. This was followed by a demonstration on the proper planting of Benguet Pine (Pinus kesiya) seedlings by Assistant Protected Area Superintendent (APASu) Jasmin Ercilla.
The tree planting activity served not only to contribute to the rehabilitation and enhancement of the forest ecosystem within the protected area but also to foster environmental awareness among the youth and community.
Together, let us continue to plant trees, nurture nature, and protect our forests for the benefit of present and future generations.
