Precision Agroforestry & Reforestation

We design, implement, and manage large-scale agroforestry projects — from "Living Fences" that protect farms and villages to GPS-monitored seedling corridors that actively combat desertification. Every project is built for long-term survival, not just planting numbers.

Large-scale seedling nurseries and outplanting logistics

GIS-mapped tree corridors with individual custodian assignments

Rail Trees and infrastructure protection initiatives

Long-term growth monitoring and reporting

Economic Agroforestry — High-Value Species Planting

We prioritise species that do double duty: restore the environment AND generate income for farming families. Our economic agroforestry model integrates high-value trees — Mango, Orange, Dates, Guava, Moringa — into smallholder farms and community land, creating long-term revenue streams while building ecological resilience.

Species selection based on local climate and market demand

Integration with existing farm systems and outgrower networks

Guaranteed offtake for produce harvested within Green Legacy's network

Carbon Sequestration & Climate Asset Development

Every tree Green Legacy plants is a verifiable carbon asset. We geo-tag, monitor, and optimise our plantings for long-term carbon capture — generating transparent, scalable climate impact that qualifies for credible carbon market programmes.

Geo-tagged, monitored trees with verified carbon credentials

Reporting aligned to international carbon market standards

Real-time data via the Plant A Tree platform

Opportunities for corporate carbon offset investment

The 'Plant A Tree' Digital Platform

Our proprietary app puts the entire reforestation journey in your hands. Sponsors, investors, and community custodians can track individual trees — their GPS location, growth stage, assigned custodian, and carbon sequestration data — from any device, at any time.

Where We Impacted

Discover the impacts of Green Legacy

Green Legacy was founded on a simple but powerful observation: Nigeria's rural north holds extraordinary potential — fertile land, hardworking people, deep agricultural heritage — but it is being held back by crumbling infrastructure, climate vulnerability, and systemic exclusion from finance and markets.

Frequently asked question

Here's everything you need to know to get started, manage your account, and troubleshoot the most frequent issues.

Green Legacy

What is Green Legacy?

Green Legacy is a Nigerian environmental sustainability and agroforestry enterprise that operates at the intersection of ecological restoration, agricultural technology, and rural economic development.

Where does Green Legacy operate?

Our operations are currently concentrated in Kano and Jigawa states in Nigeria's north, with a strategic focus on the LAKAJI economic corridor (Lagos-Kano-Jigawa) and the Kano-Maradi trade axis

How long has Green Legacy been operating?

Green Legacy has been actively operating in northern Nigeria and has to date planted over 30,000 trees, established 10 commercial farms spanning 800+ hectares, and reached over 1,800 farmers across 35 G.R.A.I.N. clusters.

Is Green Legacy a charity or a business?

We generate real economic value for farmers, investors, and communities while delivering measurable environmental impact. Our model is built for long-term sustainability, not donor dependency

Tree Sponsorship

How does tree sponsorship work?

You choose a package, fund the planting and aftercare of a set number of trees, and receive regular progress reports including GPS-tagged photos from the field.

What species can I sponsor?

We plant moringa, guava, eucalyptus, cashew, shea, and native timber species depending on the site ecology and community preference.

Can I sponsor trees in a specific state?

Yes. You can specify Kano, Jigawa, Katsina, Sokoto, or Zamfara and we will allocate your sponsorship to an active site in that state.

Do I get a certificate?

Every sponsor receives a digital certificate with GPS coordinates of their trees and an annual survival and growth report.

Investment & Partnership

How can my organisation partner with Green Legacy?

Governments, DFIs, corporates, and philanthropies partner with us on landscape-scale planting, MRV-ready climate programmes, and rural enterprise. Share your mandate through the contact form and our partnerships team will respond.

What investment structures are available?

We offer revenue-sharing commercial farm models, carbon credit joint ventures, and impact-first grant partnerships depending on your mandate and risk appetite.

Where do investment funds go?

Funds support seedling production, community training, aftercare, and monitoring so trees survive and households earn income from restored land.

Can we sponsor a specific landscape?

Yes. Shelterbelt, nursery, and watershed packages can be scoped to a state or corridor, with reporting tied to trees established, hectares restored, and people trained.
