Labour Cabinet Secretary Florence Bore took the lead today in a notable environmental endeavor at Siongiroi in Chepalungu Forest, Bomet County. Joined by staff from the State Department of Labour & Skills Development, along with various agencies and community members, they planted a total of 18,200 indigenous and fruit trees. This initiative aims to promote environmental conservation and enhance biodiversity in the region, reflecting a commitment to sustainable practices and community engagement.
The tree-planting event not only highlights the importance of preserving indigenous forests but also emphasizes the role of collaborative efforts between government bodies, local communities, and environmental agencies. By fostering partnerships and active participation in environmental stewardship, the initiative seeks to mitigate climate change impacts and promote a greener, more resilient ecosystem in Bomet County and beyond.
