Manila Seedling Bank keeps on growing trees

LOCKED in a legal battle with the Quezon City government, the Manila Seedling Bank Foundation Inc. (MSBFI) said that it continuously supports the national greening program (NGP) of President Aquino through the breeding of native and indigenous forest tree species.

MSBFI President Leonardo Ligeralde said the seven-hectare property at the corner of EDSA and Quezon Avenue remains the only green spot from the stretch of Monumento in Caloocan City and Baclaran in Pasay City where services like seedling production, reforestation, agroforestry, tree farming, composting, charcoal making and tree maintenance are provided.
