In 2021, in cooperation with the Ten Million Trees Foundation, we fenced off a 2-hectare area of our precincts where wildlife damage is no longer a threat. Here, tall installations against game were no longer necessary, but mulching the trees thickly with twigs was very useful. We transformed the former wildlife defenses one by one for the new purpose. Relying on my earlier experience, I encouraged some of the tree planting volunteers to regard themselves as co-creators and to try to construct the protective mulch so that the time spent on it would appear precious. Several volunteers were favorably disposed to my proposal and built interestingly shaped mulch variations. These instances of tree mulching are collective works, which I have documented. Several volunteers have returned to the area and could recognize the trees they mulched around. This kind of dedicated work with trees is a sort of meditation, part of a regenerative natural art programme which we will continue to develop in the future. Fanni Sall, 5 April 2023.
