Using seedlings, employees from all departments, alongside Director Elumba, transplanted various native vegetables at the Institute’s grounds. Agriculturists from DENR and CENRO facilitated the activity by teaching proper transplanting, handling, and care of plants.

Held annually and spearheaded by PTRI’s Human Resources Department, the Program aims to promote awareness on caring for the environment; encourage the abatement of climate change impacts; and foster camaraderie among the Institute’s people.
