In direct support to 9 farmers providing for 60 members, APN helped plant 2,235 trees in Bethlehem – South of the city of Jerusalem, as part of its MTC program. Those trees ranged from almond to olive and grape plants.

It is worth mentioning that Bethlehem holds religious importance amongst Chrisitians, as it also is home to several historical heritage locations. The consistent lockdowns surrounding the city has restricted its inhabitants and their sources of livelihood, including their agricultural lands in which APN seeks to stabilize and support.
