The Tanzania Tree Growers Associations Union (TTGAU) is a national umbrella organization established in 2017 to unite private, commercial smallholder tree growers. Membership is open to registered, village-level Tree Growers Associations (TGAs) rather than isolated individual farmers.

Joining a TGA solves the four biggest barriers to smallholder forestry: it gives members a collective lobbying voice to secure fair timber prices, provides access to heavily subsidized high-quality seeds, delivers professional technical training, and helps establish communal wildfire prevention networks.

Promoting social equity is a key function of the Union. TTGAU actively creates dedicated frameworks within the private commercial forestry value chain to ensure women and young people have direct access to training, land-use leadership roles, and stable financial incomes.
