WHEN: 10/16/2021 - WHERE:
In line with the celebration of World Food Day on October 16, and as part of the mission and vision of HAPI, Environmental Humanism, the involved department and offices, Philippine Society of Sanitary Engineers-BatStateU-Students’ Chapter, and Environmental Management Unit of Pablo Borbon and Alangilan Campuses were inspired to show the advocacy in planting fruit-bearing trees in Paharang East, Batangas City. This method will hopefully be a sustainable way to address some of the problems in food access. With the success of the previous tree growing activity, the team also added mulch to help the trees grow healthily. The specific objectives of the event were: 1. To educate students and extensionists about tree planting and growing initiatives by partnering with a student organization to conduct a webinar and an Adopt-A-Tree contest (October 16, 2021) 2. To plant fruit-bearing trees in Brgy. Paharang East (October 18, 2021) 3. To protect the surrounding soil of the trees from pests by scattering 1-4inches of mulch around the tree (October 18, 2021)
