PLANT YOUR TREE
THE GREEN GAIA FOUNDATION
Life moves fast. In 2021 I entered my 40 ’s.
Several questions crossed my mind, I lay in my bed, almost depressed thinking how old I am, and I was thinking about my life. What did I create? What will I leave for my children, my niece, my grandchildren behind? Am I living a quality life? Did I manage to change it at least a little for the better? Are my relationships good? Have I lived my dream? Am I planting trees as I always wanted?
The answer to many questions was: »NO!«
For two months during the summer every day, every moment disappointment over these questions hit me. I thought what I have done good in life and what I could change for the better today, this very moment
I am in the present in this very moment. What am I able to change for the better?
The spirit of the lioness in me awoke and the book Plant Your Tree was born. In the same week a phone call from the Municipality of Šentjur confirmed my good intention, as we started planting trees with children from educational institutions, more specifically from kindergartens of the Municipality of Šentjur and with the children of the primary schools.
Many supportive and enthusiastic people came on my way who helped to make plantings a reality. That is how the idea arose to establish THE GREEN GAIA FOUNDATION, which with the help of book makes all generations aware of the importance of trees, forests, nature and respect for soil, water and air.
The Green Gaia Foundation, whose aim is generally beneficial, charitable and permanent, organizes planting projects, creating green oases in in city centres and at the same time enables the individuals and the entire generations to plant their own tree and thus contributes to the mitigation of the negative effects of the climate changes.
We became a team because Maja Martinec Zupanič and Ina Gržina helped to maintain the supportive spirit of this idea with their heartfulness and commitment, while the family supported us with time and finances.

I TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO THANK
TO MY FAMILY AND ALL THOSE WHO HELPED ME BUILD THIS PATH.
The hardest battle is with yourself. When you are able to overcome this, you are on your way to contentment, happiness and joy.
I would like to give only one piece of advice to every creature on this world: »Nature heals.«
It really heals. Let us create a healthy society through projects which will be published and presented in order to be able to build good relationships, raise the awareness and spread love.
