The document outlines the timeline and activities for establishing a tree planting project over several years. It includes stakeholder meetings 18-24 months before planting, seed and seedling production 18 months before, finalizing planting plots 12 months before, hardening off and transporting saplings 1-3 months before, the planting event, and ongoing aftercare activities like weeding, monitoring, and maintenance for at least 2 years until the canopy is closed. It also provides estimates of labor needs and costs for site preparation, planting, aftercare, monitoring, and fire breaks for 1 and 10 hectare areas.
