The 24-hectare land area planted with 12,000 fruit-bearing trees is under the care of the Cag-an Upland and Lowland Development Association, a people’s organization under the supervision of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) in Region 6.

SM City Iloilo representatives were assisted by CENRO representatives May Leysa and Shyne Espinal together with CULDA people’s organization in charge of maintaining the area. The visit is one of the series of monitoring done by the mall to ensure the proper growth of the trees.
