Plant mangroves
Join community planting days along the creek, at the right tide, guided by the people who know the water.
Get Involved
Give your time to a living coast
Volunteers work shoulder to shoulder with the community, planting mangroves, tending nurseries and supporting research. It is hands-in-the-mud work, and it matters.
Volunteering with ComTouch Kenya means joining the community, not watching from the outside. Whether you have a single day or several weeks, there is real work to do, and a lot to learn about mangroves, tides and coastal life.
Ways to help
Support the nurseries
Help collect propagules, fill and tend nursery beds, and care for seedlings before they are planted.
Assist research
Support monitoring and data collection with our team and visiting researchers.
Share your skills
Photography, storytelling, teaching, fundraising; if you have a skill the coast can use, we would love to hear from you.
Good to know
- Most work is outdoors and tide-dependent, on and around the creek.
- We will confirm the meeting point, what to bring and safety guidance before you arrive.
- Groups, students and individuals are all welcome; tell us your dates and interests.
- We recommend appropriate travel and medical insurance for your visit.
