Tens of trees were planted at the Salina National Park, near Kennedy Grove, by audit, tax and advisory firm KPMG as part of the 34U campaign.
The audit firm has planted 265 trees as part of its corporate social responsibility programme with the aim of making Malta greener. Environment Minister George Pullicino attended the tree planting ceremony.
The trees were planted by employees and volunteers, who earlier on rolled up their sleeves and did some heavy gardening work at the Foresta 2000 site near Mellieha, which has been earmarked for upgrading and forestation.
KPMG senior partner Joseph Schembri emphasised the company's corporate responsibility to inspire, challenge and power its people to positively contribute to society and the environment to build a sustainable business future.
"We believe that our commitment to social responsibility and the environment is increasingly essential to the success of our business and is a demonstration of our values in action."
