'Fruit Tree-Mendous to Feed Us' Labour Day 2023 Campaign

About the Campaign

What are you doing this Labour Day?

FarmLinkr wants to get you and all Jamaicans to plant a fruit tree in time for this Labour Day and for many days after. The campaign has a target of 5,000 fruit trees to be planted by Labour Day. The initiative, developed and executed in partnership with Nature Touch Farms, is seeking to encourage Jamaicans anywhere they are, to purchase a fruit tree from Nature Touch Farms through FarmLinkr's online platform, for planting in local communities. The campaign's slogan is 'Fruit Tree-Mendous To Feed Us'

The campaign, which will be using multiple media platforms to spread awareness for the initiative will lead up to Labour Day, ending with a day of planting trees from several sponsored companies. The trees will be planted at Nature Touch Farms, in Windsor Castle Portland.

Campaign Objectives

• Planting 5000 fruit trees by Labour Day 2023
