To welcome the Hajj season - 1444 AH, and under the Green Caravan programme, APN planted 330 fruit trees including olives, grapes, and stone fruits, for the benefit of seven farming families in Ma'an, a renowned city known as the "Pilgrim City". This city holds historical significance as a prominent station along the pilgrim route, where 1300 years ago pilgrims would entrust their belongings to the local community for safekeeping until their return.

This activity was carried out in line with the natural characteristics of the region, known for its abundant Hijazi and Levantine orchards cultivated with pomegranate, fig, apricot, and various other trees.
