• This lone tree in the middle of a vast landscape is the last of our "My Favourite Tree" entries. For Connie Jaynes of St. Kitts, it was a landmark on the way to a very special place and people... a precious memory she shared with us... Thank you Connie! Trees are, in a sense, witness to our comings and goings... constant even as the seasons change and the years pass. For all the ways they enrich our lives and take care of us, let us take good care of them too! #trees #CaringForOurFuture #NosImportaElFuturo #iweco

  • In his entry to IWEco's "My Favourite Tree" competition, Linton Arneaud of Trinidad & Tobago featured the Moriche Palm - a keystone species (according to National Geographic,"an organism that helps define an entire ecosystem"). He reminds us that this remarkable tree, found in South America and Trinidad, in addition to being beautiful and supporting a remarkable array of life, also has many uses to the people who live nearby. Thank you Linton! #trees #CaringForOurFuture #NosImportaElFuturo #iweco

  • Have you ever considered how old some of the trees around us are? Many have stood constant while successive generations of people passed by. Coral Fernandez' entry to IWEco's "My Favourite Tree" competition, is a recognition and appreciation of one special, old tree... Thank you Coral, for reminding us that we should never take these precious living "elders" for granted. #CaringForOurFuture #NosImportaElFuturo #trees #iweco

  • Many of us can relate to Sanjae Spence's entry to IWEco's "My Favourite Tree" competition - the glory of the Poui tree (whether yellow or pink!) as it blossoms each year, carpeting the ground beneath... Her poem tells us how significant the yellow poui is to her. How many of us have viewed a tree like this? Thank you Sanjae! #CaringForOurFuture #NosImportaElFuturo #trees #iweco

  • In his 'My Favourite Tree' entry, Laurent Jean Pierre of Saint Lucia reminded us of the love Caribbean people have for coconut trees, of some of the ways they enrich our lives... Characteristic of beaches, yes, but also distinctive wherever they grow and precious for many reasons. Thank you Laurent! #CaringForOurFuture #NosImportaElFuturo #trees #iweco

  • Many of the trees around us have medicinal benefits - Nykeisha Henry of the tiny island of Nevis, decided to plant two of the Caribbean's most valued trees in her garden with a bigger purpose in mind too... She explains in her entry to IWECo's My Favourite Tree competition - an inspiration to us all! Thank you Nykeisha! #CaringForOurFuture #NosimportaElFuturo #iweco #trees

  • Almond trees are appreciated for the shade they provide on many Caribbean beaches and coastlines. In her entry to IWEco's My Favourite Tree competition, Shania Marie Lebrun of Saint Lucia, drew us a picture and described the wonder of playing with almonds on her visits to the beach. Thank you Shania, for reminding many of us of happy hours spent in the shade of these lovely trees which we often take forgranted. #CaringForOurFuture #NosImportaElFuturo #iweco #trees
