Gardening Galore is a nature-based solutions company established in 2020 during the COVID-19 lockdown in Mombasa, Kenya, through a partnership between Daughters of Destiny Children's Trust and Stichting Likoni Onderneemt. The organization focuses on environmental restoration and climate action through tree planting, reforestation, and sustainable practices.
Their mission centers on empowering youth and communities by creating green jobs and skills development while addressing climate change. Key activities include operating a tree and flower nursery in Likoni, maintaining sales outlets in Likoni and Kombani, and managing a food forest in Ukunda.
The company emphasizes circular economy principles by turning waste into resources, promoting localized production and recycling, and rehabilitating dumpsites. Their impact includes planting trees and shrubs, carrying out sustainable reforestation projects, and forming business partnerships.
Gardening Galore aims to restore Kenya's forest cover, sequester carbon, reduce temperatures, improve soil health, and protect biodiversity while building wealth and providing decent employment opportunities for young people.
