Its aim was to stimulate research, development and training in agricultural practices in order to combat the wide spread degradation of the Gambian environment by the combination of drought and human exploitation.

Bantang Bantaba is situated at the edge of the forest
in front of a magnificent specimen Silk Cotton Tree.
It is designed to attract tourists and locals for a snack and a drink
and be informed on several aspects of our work and Gambian culture.
An interesting short forest walk has been designed to allow visitors to enjoy the trees, bush and the many splendid birds.
