Wild Asia is keen to support tree-planting events across Malaysia. If you are planning your own event but require a source of native tree species, then do get in touch with Wild Asia. We have a network of local nurserymen who will be able to provide you with tree seedlings.
You can also support us by helping us raise funds to purchase trees for tree planting. Many of our trees are sourced from local nurserymen and community groups, so with every purchase, the benefits extend to people on the ground - the very people who have the knowledge and interest to raise tree seedlings.
If you have your own piece of land, why not give back to nature and dedicate areas to be natural corridors. Wild Asia is keen to provide technical support for this or you could join our network of tree hosts by signing up to our programme.

Why Trees?
Enhancing wild spaces
Trees are long-term solutions for creating wild spaces. The idea is to plant trees that are favored by local wildlife, are able to propagate themselves, or are fast-growing to allow abandoned areas to be re-covered with natural vegetation.
Reaching out to the community
Tree planting events are a great way of getting the community involved. This could include the people living nearby, local government officials or even leaders of local businesses. These events are a great way to bring people together. Contact us if you have a tree -planting event we could support.
Supporting community enterprises
Growing trees helps enhance local knowledge of trees and creates an alternative income source. Our network now extends from Peninsular Malaysia to Sarawak and Sabah. Contact us if you would like to source native trees.
