Olive tree campaign in Palestine
Olive tree campaign helps keep hope alive in Palestine Over 8,000 olive tree saplings will be planted this spring in the Occupied Palestinian Territories to replace olive groves that have been uprooted. The campaign, Keep Hope Alive, makes it possible for individuals, churches and organizations from other countries to help Palestinian farmers maintain their land and source of income, said Mennonite Central Committee peace development worker Timothy Seidel.
