Have a Fruitful Year 2010!!!

Being a valued friend, we are growing a banaba tree under your name (your family's / organization's name) at the start of the year at Villegas Organic and Hobby (VOHO) farms!

Banaba (scientific name: lagerstroemia speciosa) is a popular medicinal plant in the Philippines for the treatment of urinary tract infection and diabetes, as well as a weight-reduction agent. Commonly found in the provinces, it is said to be used for over 50 years by our grandparents. Practicing agroforestry, this tree seats along shrubs, vegetation and livestock.

The Villegas Organic and Hobby Farms, spearheaded by Mr Pablito Villegas, and run by Kalipunan ng Sustenableng Agrikultura Magsasakang Organiko (KASAMA KA) organic cooperative, a group of farmers and organic practitioners, promotes agroforestry which combines agricultural and forestry technologies to create more diverse, productive, profitable, healthy and sustainable land-use systems.

Agroforestry increases biodiversity by incorporating several plant species into an area that creates wider habitat for varied species of birds, insects, and other animals. Agroforestry also has the potential to help reduce climate change since trees take up and store carbon at a faster rate than crop plants. In addition, it augments the lives of farmers, since cash crops are planted simultaneously with fruit-bearing trees.

VISIT YOUR TREE at Villegas Organic and Hobby (VOHO) Farms, Malvar Batangas, Philippines.  Let us plant more trees for this generation and the next.   We are not just growing banaba tree - there's more.
