ÁREAS DE GESTÃO l Manutenção na Azóia
Esta semana a equipa tem estado na Azóia a remover o acacial seco após o descasque nas épocas anteriores. A este trabalho seguir-se-ão mondas regulares para controlar a germinação do banco de sementes existente no solo e, a identificação de regeneração nativa como alguns sobreiros e carvalhos-negrais que já começam a surgir!

"Hi I'm Valentin from France. I spent two and half amazing months as a volunteer within the Plantar Uma Arvore team.
I’m very grateful for having the opportunity to live and work in such a beautiful place. I was already familiar with some parts of Portugal but I was eager to discover this area and its fauna and flora. Sintra-Cascais Natural Park is unique and I felt that I was doing something significant to preserve its natural patrimony.
Maintenance and planting new trees were our two main tasks. Uprooting blackberry bushes and weeding acacias could be hard and repetitive sometimes but it was good to notice the impact of our work after cleaning the area! We knew that maintenance was crucial to protect natural regeneration and the trees we planted from invasive species. On the other hand, planting native species was very rewarding and I think that we all gave our best to provide the best growing conditions to each tree and shrub we planted.
I always tried to keep in mind how important are consistency, persistence and adaptability for nature conservation, so we can observe long-term effects.
Thank you to the other volunteers for the great time we spent together on and off the field.
Thank you to the locals for taking care of your natural inheritance during community initiatives.
Thank you to the Plantar Uma Arvore team for taking so much care of us during all our stay, keep going with this amazing project.

Espero voltar um dia para ver a evolução dessa floresta de nativos que está a crescer e enraizar-se graças ao vosso empenho."

FOGO CONTROLADO NA SERRA DO ALVÃO
Os voluntários da Plantar uma Árvore da Serra do Alvão no âmbito da formação sobre técnicas de conservação da natureza tiveram a oportunidade de visitar uma área, nos Baldios de Pensalvos e Soutelo de Matos onde os sapadores da Aguiar Floresta se encontravam a realizar fogo controlado. Aprenderam sobre as vantagens e desafios da utilização do fogo controlado na gestão de uma área silvopastoril de montanha e algumas técnicas utilizadas na condução do fogo.

LIFE VOLUNTEER ESCAPES Testemunho Emma Furniss-Roe
“I’m Emma, I’m from the UK and I volunteered at Plantar uma Árvore in Sintra for 4,5 months between August and December. I joined the program as, after working in finance in London, I was keen for a change and I love nature and hope to work in conservation in the future.
Over my time here, I got involved in a range of different practical work, controlling invasive species in the summer and planting trees in the winter. Although I was interested in nature before, I learnt so much about plants thanks to our coordinator Mariana’s encyclopaedic knowledge. I also got to go on a lot of field trips, including a nature conservation camp for young people in the Azores, truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The team of coordinators, local and other European volunteers were a real pleasure to work with, and Miguel’s commitment to the company and passion for nature really shows. Living with the other volunteers was really special as it allows you to learn so much about each other and become friends for life, even in a short amount of time. I especially loved living in Sintra as there is so much to do in your free time; having the beach and the mountains nearby, plenty of Palaces to explore and Lisbon just a short train ride away.
Overall, I had an unforgettable experience volunteering in Portugal and made some amazing friends and memories along the way.”

“Working with Plantar Uma Árvore for Volunteer Escapes was a memorable experience. It made me realize how ignorant we have been with environment and its preservation. When it comes to the workspace, we were provided with a friendly environment. Working with this organization boosted my confidence regarding communication with my teammates and also with local people which made me understand different perspectives towards environmental protection. In addition, we also have team meetings regularly in which we can share our feedback regarding work and personal opinions. We were treated as family not just as a team. I have the best team ever and it created some of the best memories in my life which I will carry with me till the end.”
