On November 1, 2025, a large-scale tree planting event was held in Shymkent as part of the nationwide environmental campaign "Taza Kazakhstan." The event was initiated by employees of Beineu-Shymkent Gas Pipeline LLP and the city's Abay District Akimat. The event aimed to green the city's urban areas, improve the environmental situation, foster environmental awareness among residents, and develop habits of caring for cleanliness and green spaces.
Around 100 people took part in the planting, including company employees, district administration representatives, volunteers, neighborhood residents, and students. Each participant was provided with the necessary equipment: shovels, rakes, buckets, and gloves, allowing for efficient and safe tree planting.
The event took place in Korgan Park, where approximately one hundred coniferous trees, primarily pines and spruces, were planted. These trees were distributed among specially prepared plots, taking into account soil characteristics, light conditions, and future plant maintenance. This approach allowed for the creation of a harmonious composition of trees that will eventually become part of the city's green space, enhancing its appearance and creating a comfortable walking environment for residents.
Employees of Beineu-Shymkent Gas Pipeline LLP noted that their participation in the campaign is not only a social initiative but also a contribution to the city's environmental well-being. "We are pleased to participate in the 'Taza Kazakhstan' campaign. Planting trees is a concrete step toward improving the environmental situation and creating a green and comfortable city. We hope these trees will bring joy to city residents for many years to come," said one of the company representatives.
The Akimat of the Abay District also actively supported the event. Representatives of the district administration provided organizational support, delivered seedlings and tools, and prepared the site for planting. They emphasized that such events strengthen the bond between authorities and residents, raise environmental awareness, and instill a sense of responsibility for the environment.
Before the planting began, participants received instructions on proper tree planting. Specialists demonstrated how to plant seedlings deeply, how to compact the soil around the roots, and how to properly water and care for young trees in the first months after planting. This approach allows the trees to successfully establish and thrive, and allows participants to feel a sense of belonging in preserving urban nature.
Particular attention was paid to the educational component of the event. The organizers highlighted the importance of green spaces: trees purify the air, provide shade, regulate the microclimate, provide a habitat for birds and other animals, and enhance the city's visual appeal. The coniferous trees that were planted are particularly resilient to Shymkent's climate, allowing them to quickly establish themselves and delight residents with their greenery for many years to come.
Students and schoolchildren actively participated in the planting. Young people helped prepare the holes, plant the trees, and water them, while learning from the experience of adult participants and volunteers. For many, this was not only a rewarding experience but also a powerful lesson in environmental responsibility and practical experience in participating in socially significant projects.
The participants' collaborative efforts strengthened team spirit and a sense of community. People of different ages and backgrounds worked together, shared knowledge and experience, and helped each other, making the process more effective and enjoyable. Many participants noted that joint initiatives unite residents, foster environmental awareness, and instill a habit of caring for nature.
After the tree planting, representatives of the akimat and the company thanked all participants for their active participation, noting that tree planting is a concrete contribution to the city's environmental future. Recommendations were given for the future care of the young trees: regular watering, soil loosening, pest control, and maintaining the park grounds.
During the campaign, approximately one hundred trees were planted, which will eventually become a green space, providing shade and improving the microclimate and aesthetics of Korgan Park. The young conifers will provide comfortable conditions for residents to relax and stroll, improve air quality, and become part of a sustainable urban ecosystem.
The "Taza Kazakhstan" campaign in Shymkent demonstrated that the joint efforts of government agencies, companies, and residents can yield tangible results. Such initiatives not only improve the environmental situation but also instill in residents the habit of caring for nature, fostering environmental awareness and a sense of responsibility.
The organizers emphasized that such events will be held regularly. In the future, they plan to expand the tree planting program to other parks and squares across the city, conduct educational events for the public, and teach children and young people how to properly care for green spaces.
Tree planting has become not only an environmental but also a social initiative. The collaborative work of participants strengthens community ties, fosters a sense of community and civic responsibility. Each sapling contributes to the health of city residents, improves the urban environment, and creates comfortable conditions for recreation and living.
Thus, on November 1, 2025, nearly one hundred coniferous trees were planted in Shymkent's Korgan Park as part of the "Taza Kazakhstan" campaign. The event was a success, bringing together residents, students, volunteers, company employees, and representatives of the city administration. The planted trees will make a long-term contribution to greening the city, fostering environmental awareness, and creating a comfortable urban environment.
The event demonstrated that the collective efforts of all participants can transform the appearance of a city, making it cleaner, greener, and more welcoming. The event inspired residents to take further action to improve and care for nature, and also became a shining example of effective collaboration between government agencies, businesses, and the public.
