On 25th before the event, our Chairman and Founder, Mr. Ali Machicha, had the pleasure of welcoming Guinness World Record holder Trufena Muthoni to our Mangrove Nursery Bank.

During her visit, Mr. Machicha shared insights into the different species of crabs found in our mangrove ecosystem, explaining their unique characteristics and the important role they play in maintaining a healthy coastal environment.

We were honored to host Trufena and appreciate her interest in our conservation efforts. Together, we continue to raise awareness about the importance of protecting our mangroves and their rich biodiversity.

As the Kenya Forest Service and the KENYA SCOUTS ASSOCIATION prepare the planting site at Jomvu kwa Fara village for the 26th July mangrove restoration exercise, Bidii Creek Conservancy-CBO team has been hard at work transporting Avicennia marina seedlings from our nursery to the planting site.

On 26th July, we will join the world in celebrating the International Day for the Conservation of the Mangrove Ecosystem. This special day will also mark an exciting milestone as the Kenya Scouts Association attempts to break the Guinness World Records title for the most people planting trees simultaneously.

Together, we are restoring our mangrove ecosystems, strengthening climate resilience, and inspiring collective environmental action—one seedling at a time.

🌱 Every seedling planted is an investment in a greener, healthier future.

Bidii Creek Conservancy-CBO was represented at the 11th Our Ocean Conference (OOC11), a global platform bringing together leaders, conservationists, and environmental stakeholders committed to protecting our oceans and coastal ecosystems.

The closing session, presided over by His Excellency Dr. William Samoei Ruto, President of Kenya, emphasized Kenya’s remarkable progress in mangrove restoration, marine conservation, ecosystem restoration, and climate action. The conference strongly highlighted the urgent need to move from commitments to action through partnerships, innovation, financing, science, and community participation.

As Bidii Creek CBO, we are encouraged to see that the priorities discussed at OOC11 directly reflect the work we continue to champion at the grassroots level — mangrove restoration, blue carbon conservation, biodiversity protection, and building climate resilience within our coastal communities.

This global conversation reaffirms what we have always believed: meaningful environmental conservation starts with empowered communities. Through collaboration with local stakeholders, volunteers, and partners, we remain committed to the conservation, restoration, and protection of our precious coastal ecosystems.

Together, we can create lasting change for our oceans, mangroves, and future generations.

**World Environment Day Celebration 🌍🌱**

To mark this year's **World Environment Day**, we joined hands with our valued stakeholders, including the Kenya Forest Service, Kenya Pipeline Company, Kenya Pipeline Foundation the Jomvu area Chief, Village Elders, Mombasa Scouts, fellow environmental organizations, and the wider Jomvu Kuu community.

Together, we demonstrated our commitment to environmental conservation and ecosystem restoration by planting 1,200 Avicennia marina seedlings and 2,000 Ceriops tagal seedlings. This collective effort contributes to the restoration of our mangrove forests, which play a vital role in protecting coastlines, supporting biodiversity, storing carbon, and sustaining local livelihoods.

World Environment Day reminds us that protecting nature is a shared responsibility. We are grateful to everyone who participated and supported this important initiative. Through partnership, community action, and continued dedication, we can create a healthier and more sustainable future for generations to come.
