Seedballs: Planting Trees While On Safari

At Explorest Travel, we believe that every journey should leave a positive impact—not just on the traveler but also on the environment. That’s why we ensure that our travelers explore the world sustainably. For all our clients embarking on road safaris, we provide specially packed seedballs, curated exclusively for Explorest Travellers.

Seedballs

What Are Seedballs?

Seedballs are an innovative and eco-friendly way to reforest and regenerate natural landscapes. Each seedball contains an indigenous seed encased in a nutrient-rich ball of charcoal dust, ensuring the seeds are protected until they are ready to germinate with the first rains. This initiative, led by Seedballs Kenya , is dedicated to reducing the cost of planting various indigenous tree and grass species in Kenya. You can learn more about the available species by visiting www.seedballskenya.com.

How It Works: Reforesting Made Fun & Easy

Planting trees while on safari has never been more fun! With our unique handmade slingshots , crafted by expert Maasai women near Amboseli National Park, you can launch seedballs in style. Here’s how you can contribute to a greener future:

  1. Think Like a Tree – Choose a spot with access to water, away from invasive weeds, and with plenty of sunlight.
  2. Load Your Slingshot – Get ready to plant trees effortlessly with your beautifully crafted slingshot.
  3. Aim, Throw, and Track – Launch your seedballs into suitable areas, drop a map pin, and check back later to see how your trees are growing.

Making an Impact, One Seedball at a Time

Every Explorest traveler receives half a kilo of indigenous tree seedballs , containing nearly 300 tree seeds ! This simple yet effective initiative allows you to leave a lasting legacy in the beautiful landscapes you explore.

So, next time you embark on an adventure with Explorest, remember that your journey goes beyond just breathtaking sights—it also nurtures the planet. Let’s travel responsibly, plant trees, and make a difference—one seedball at a time!
