Rhodes has also been known as the Emerald Island, thanks to its rich pine tree forests and lush valleys. However, the island has suffered extreme fires in 2008, resulting more than half of its forests to be burnt to the ground.<\/p>\n
The Antigone Traditional House is gladly participating to the Forest Ambassador Program launched by the local NGO “Gia ti Fisi” (For Nature).<\/p>\n
As Forest Ambassador, for every stay you have with us we plant a tree on your behalf, contributing to the reforestation of selected areas on the island that have suffered serious destruction from fire in the past.<\/p>\n
The tree will bare your name forever, you will receive a certificate including coordinates to track it through Google Maps.<\/p>\n
Let us help make Rhodes, green again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
