The land which is located few kilometers before Daystar University Athi River Campus is relatively flat and bare with little vegetation.

The planting activity was carried out on Saturday 22nd February 2014 where about 100 men through the Men Ministry within the Citam church structure came to plant the trees. A host of other female church members were present where they assisted in preparing food and mbuzi choma which was provided after the planting activity.

In his personal remarks, the deputy senior pastor of Citam Athi River Pst.
