About Our Organization:
RETAFO – Reforestation Task Force is a non-profit organization and non-governmental organization, founded by Berinyuy Emile in 2016, with the main target to bring sensitization and sustainability on climate change in the community.
We identify problems in our community and set up our departments to solve these problems and our focus was on promoting nursery activities with objectives to fight climate change Horticulture to beautify our environment, crop production to increase food security, and animal husbandry for meat production in order to sustain our organization and to boost our societies GDP. We legalized our organization on July 14th, 2021. Registration Number NW/GP/004/21/16852
RETAFO is made up of a group of highly skilled professionals who pays a lot of attention to small details and are dedicated to serving the society.
Almost a decade ago I started a company as one man in order to help the society. Not much later others came in through trainings I organized and are now a part of the team.
In the last few years, we grew very quickly, so 2019 was the year we opened a second location in Yaoundé. The new location started with five new landscapers.
We now have a total of over 30 workers who work with us across the various sectors of RETAFO in not just the main branch in Bamenda but across the other branches in the county

Fertilizing your lawn is a necessary lawn care task to ensure your lawn has proper nutrients to ensure healthy growth and attractive quality.
Some types of trees that grow well in Indiana are the American Hornbeam, Hackberry and Japanese Tree Lilac.
There are many different types and sizes of water features that you can add to your yard landscape, so the cost varies based on the water feature you choose and the size of it.
It is recommended that you stay off of the treated areas for a minimum of 30 minutes after treatment.
