YAY for Rainy Planting Season and our Tree Nursery Workers

Our work depends on Mother Nature. And This year, the rainy season has started early with full force. It seems we has the dryest few months ever and now we are excited to see the rain falling. Seeds have been slow this year to fall given the extreme summer dryness, so we are gratefuyl we planned ahead and saved some trees from last year to start early this year. The trees are huge and our nurseries are doing such a good job continuing to care for both the bigger trees which need more water in the summert aas well as all the sprouting babuies that are tender and need loving care. All of our tree nurseries aare working with expanded work forces, all women who were hired last year to bring us into 2022 with high biodiversity and plentiful healthy trees to deliver and plant. 

Given our expansion to new areas at higher altitudes like the valley of Diamante and La Guaria plus Chimerol of Cerro Chiurripo, our high altitude nursery is fulfilling a strong demad for special trees. Again, we prepared last year for this year's rainy season and are enjoying the rewards of having lots of bigger trees of all kinds of threatened and rare species for humans and animals. And of course, our other two tree nurseries are consistently full of so many healthy  varieties we are so looking forward to plant. 

We can bring the rainforest back to life. It all starts with the seed sprouting. We nurture the trees so they can nurture us.  

Thank you always for your generous support. Every tree makes a difference.
