The Department of Environment (DOE) has announced plans to host Arbour Day 2025 on November 27, centered around the theme “Buzzing with Power – Planting Trees for a Climate-Smart Future.” This annual event, set to take place on the DOE Lawn starting at 9 a.m., aims to engage residents in environmental conservation and bolster climate resilience. Attendees will have the opportunity to purchase a diverse range of fruit trees, including coconut, custard apple, raspberry, soursop, guava, and pomegranate. Plant bags will be available for $2.50 each, with the option to exchange two bags for a tree. Beyond tree planting, the event will feature an array of activities such as live music, food and drink stalls, prize giveaways, and educational workshops focused on sustainable living and reforestation. Officials emphasize that the initiative seeks to inspire communities to take actionable steps toward a greener Antigua and Barbuda by promoting the cultivation of climate-resilient fruit trees.
