The Mindanao State University–Marawi, through the College of Forestry and Environmental Studies (CFES) students in Section Hh of SF0G65 (Forestry Extension, Knowledge, and Communication) presented their campaign titled “Tree Growing over Tree Planting of Native Species,” to Grade 7 Earth students at the MSU – Integrated Laboratory School (ILS) on December 9, 2024.
The presentation discussed the importance of tree growing compared to tree planting and further introduced native tree species in the Philippines suitable for cultivation. Orland Phillip Salvador, in his opening remarks, said, “Bago tayo makacontribute sa suliranin ng kaligiran at sangkatauhan, dapat may sapat muna tayong kaalaman.”
A workshop followed, where students created 10-minute slogans/posters based on what they learned from the campaign and demonstrated proper seedling/sapling growing methods.
Forester Nurjannah Cariga closed the program by saying, “Sana ang natutunan nyo dito ay magagamit nyo sa pag tulong sa komunidad.”
