Our tropical community activated reforestation work focuses on planting high bio diversity food and commercial corridors. This means we do our own seed collecting from local Mother Trees involving as many people and species as possible. Because tropical sun can be so harsh, shade areas are necessary for successful tree production. All of our trees spend from 10 months to 2 years in the nursery before being planted. We make tree production a sustainable business for local people which in turn gives added reasons to conserve the older cherished species stil left standing. It all starts here! Our community tree nurseries are now ready to accommodate groups of volunteers and students, as well as paid workers who help us produce and trasnport all of the trees we plant on farms owned by Costa Ricans. We produce yummy exotic fruit trees for humans. We also produce fruits for bats, birds, tapirs, pumas, jaguarundis, scarlett macaws and monkeys anteaters and snakes, just to name a few. We produce fine exotic hardwoods and all kinds of medicinal trees too. We thank you for sponsoring a tree because every single one is so valuable and really does make a difference in offseting global challenge of climate change and rainforest regeneration.
