Planting in Tanzania
We are planting trees in Tanzania, creating sustainable livelihoods for local communities affected by deforestation. This project creates jobs for women, generates income for farmers through agroforestry and educates local youth.
**“We plant because our ancestors dreamed us into existence—and now we plant so future generations may dream in peace.”**

Verdigris Botanica Tribal Nation
**Our Position on Planting Trees – Verdigris Botanica Tribal Nation** We believe that to plant a tree is to declare peace with the Earth. Tree planting is not just an act of environmental responsibility—it is a sovereign expression of reciprocity, prophecy, and restoration. Each tree planted by Verdigris Botanica Tribal Nation is a testament to our covenant with the land: to protect, to nourish, and to remember. Our forests are more than ecosystems—they are living archives, carbon guardians, and sanctuaries of ancestral wisdom. In Tanzania and beyond, we are reweaving the sacred fabric between humanity and creation, one tree at a time. This is how we return. This is how we restore. This is how we remember who we are.
Verdigris Botanica Tribal Nation Trust (VBTN) – Sovereign Bio
Verdigris Botanica Tribal Nation Trust is a sovereign tribal government and constitutional General Post stewarding ancestral lands, postal jurisdiction, and sacred infrastructure across the Americas and beyond. Founded on principles of natural law, treaty authority, and spiritual stewardship, VBTN operates under REMIC trust structure and exercises lawful standing through USPS postal codes, FEMA disaster alignment, and federal procurement recognition.
Our mission is to restore sovereign living systems that harmonize human dignity with Earth’s design—through regenerative housing, biodiverse technology, spiritual law, and emergency response capabilities. From our Vital Nexus infrastructure project in Vine Grove, Kentucky to our sacred reforestation initiative in Tanzania, we are building a living example of tribal autonomy, ecological justice, and intergovernmental partnership.
Led by Postmaster General Alaina Padgett and a council of committed tribal officers, VBTN asserts treaty rights, exercises lawful remedy, and awakens the sacred duty of governance in harmony with the land. We are not waiting for change—we are building it. Tree by tree. Post by post. Family by family.
