Celebrating the UN International Day of Forests with VicTree Forests!

Forests are more than just landscapes—they are living histories, cultural legacies, and community lifelines. This UN International Day of Forests (March 21st), the Foundation for Building Sustainable Communities (FBSC) is inviting YOU to be part of VicTree Forests, a community awareness program that blends agroforestry, food, biodiversity, and cultural traditions to create a sustainable future.

VicTree Forests: Honoring Tradition, Growing the Future

Across generations and cultures, forests have been sacred spaces—providing medicine, food, and shelter while shaping traditions and ways of life. VicTree Forests builds on this legacy by:
Reviving Traditional Agroforestry – Honoring Indigenous and ancestral farming methods to heal the land
Celebrating Cultural Food Heritage – Planting fruit, nut, and medicinal trees that reflect diverse global traditions
Restoring Biodiversity – Protecting native species, pollinators, and ecosystems that sustain life

Forests, Culture & Biodiversity

Forests hold the stories of our ancestors—through the plants they nurtured, the foods they shared, and the wisdom they passed down. By planting VicTree Forests, we are not just growing trees, we are preserving heritage and restoring ecosystems.

Imagine:

A community forest where elders teach the next generation about traditional food harvesting

A living garden that reflects the diverse cultural roots of a neighborhood
A thriving ecosystem where pollinators, native plants, and food forests work together in harmony
