The Men of the Trees was an organisation first formed in Kenya in 1922 by Richard St Barbe Baker, who, becoming concerned about the effects of deforestation in Africa, devoted the remainder of his life to promoting reforestation projects across the world.  The organisation exists today as the International Tree Foundation and continues his work.  The examples here were planted to commemorate the Silver Jubilee of King George V in 1935.
