		<description><![CDATA[Komaza is excited to share photos of our current April 2013 planting season.  This season we embark on planting our first 10 mahogany (melia volkensii) tree farms.  We are diversifying beyond our flagship eucalyptus into this indigenous, drought-resistant, termite-resistant tree.  It has been a difficult tree to germinate from seed and our Nursery team had [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As Komaza endeavors to expand its nursery operation into a profit center, we have diversified into tree species besides eucalyptus.  The third tree species we have begun germinating is the coconut. After attending training at Kenya Coconut Development Authority (KCDA), Komaza is now a certified nursery operator and has its first contract to supply KCDA [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Komaza is privileged to have many fantastic field staff who work very hard to support our farmers.  In fact, many staff believe in the model so deeply that they too become farmers and plant trees on their own land.  One example is our Field Manager, Alfred Kiti. He is a such a proponent of the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In 2011 Komaza executed a trial tree-thinning operation with a handful of farmers in Tezo.  We knew the trees would re-grow as coppices after cutting them and that&#8217;s indeed what&#8217;s been happening for 2 years.  Some of the coppices are already as tall as the original trees!  The following photo shows one of our Tezo [...]]]></description>
