In all our years working to regenerate this ecosystem, we have learned that onboarding community members is key to a lasting impact and true transformation.
As we have advanced our reforestation efforts, we have come to learn how much one of our areas is beloved by the community as an outdoor activity spot. People from around the area come here for mountain biking, enduro, hiking and even paragliding!
We are certain that cultivating a love for the outdors and sharing the beauty of the top of our Rio View trail will help us create a network of guardians of our reforestation efforts. This is why last month we co-organized an event with the association of paragliders, where we celebrated our outdoor culture and planted trees together with representatives of many different tribes that enjoy Rio View.
Together, we committed to the preservation of our natural environment and the reforestation effort - which was landscaped around trails and the take-off point for paragliding. We hope Rio View will be a reference of regenerative tourism for Rio and Brazil!
Thank you to our donors who support us in this multidisciplinary effort to bring back the forest. We will keep you updated as our seedlings grow!
