6 thousand seedlings planted!

Preparing the area

In the last months, in our reforestation project we have managed to plant 6.000 seedlings of native trees of the Mata Atlantica in 4 hectares of SINAL!

For our project, we are using 4 different reforestation techniques according to the characteristics of each plot of land. In these 4 hectares, the technique chosen to reforest was Total Planting because of the state of degradation of the land, as there were very little trees and the soil was quite eroded.
We are very excited to develop this project, because we are creating an innovative model. We are testing models that are flexible enough to allow for different income possibilities, within activities our neighbors practice. For example, we plan to:
1. include in the reforestation design ecotourism attractions, such as trails for bikes and hiking; and
2. allow the presence of cows to live there and coexist with the trees, through monitored holistic grazing.

We would like to thank our donors for giving us the opportunity to experiment and expand a model where people, animals and nature coexist in a sustainable way!
We will keep you posted as the project progresses!
