Following last summer’s devastating forest fires, a group of around 40 volunteers gathered in Silves in November to plant nearly 6000 new trees as part of a reforestation initiative entitled Operação Montanha Verde, promoted and funded by Zoomarine and Silves council.
The young trees were planted in Herdade do São Bom Homem and should go some way to replenishing the area.
With special thanks going to the volunteers who included Zoomarine workers, Sapadores firefighters, and members of the Silves council civil protection services.
