Veolia Branches out in Nationwide School Orchard Initiative

Nationwide, our colleagues in the Veolia Orchards team have coordinated the planting of more than 1,500 apple and pear trees and 1,900 strawberry plants since 2022.

Our teams have engaged with more than 200 schools this year, providing hands-on education about growing techniques and environmental care. Using over 400 bags of our sustainable peat-free Pro-Grow products, this project exemplifies our dedication to environmental stewardship and community engagement, helping inspire the next generation of environmental champions!

“The Veolia Orchard scheme continues to demonstrate its valuable contribution to ecological transformation, growing year on year and bringing environmental improvement to more communities across the country. By branching out to even more schools in the municipal areas we support with essential recycling and waste services, Veolia is building a greener, more sustainable future for everyone by inspiring more and more young people to embrace ecological practices.’’  Pascal Hauret, Municipal Managing Director
