Our Goal
5 Million Trees Planted by 2025
OUR 4 PILLARS
Forest Management
- Our goal is to influence private, public, and community landowners to restore critical masses of the forest.
- It is planting local tree species that provide a natural habitat for the wildlife and economic growth for the people living there.
- Focus on areas under integrated agricultural and forestry production.
- Farming systems within natural forest ecosystems will yield high-quality timber deadwood timber that can selectively be repurposed.
Develop Sustainable Food Production
- Integrated land management will support the establishment of Baru nut trees.
- Intercropping with Baru is encouraged. The communities can and will continue to plant and harvest crops such as corn, sesame, yucca and other crops that supply a stable food source and income for their family for years.
- Fruit from the Baru tree is used for feeding livestock. In addition, this seed has been consumed by the local community members for generations.
Reducing global CO2 Emissions
- Dipteryx alata (Baru trees) is one of the world’s best species for CO2 conversion.
- Baru nut trees grow well in acidic, degraded land and require very little water.
- We plan on planting 1 million trees.
- Local training programs will help ensure the trees are to maturity.
Indigenous Community Economic Development
- Activity will improve the income and living conditions of local farmers and their families and supply local communities with seedlings, training, and supplies.
- Purchasing agreements with local farmers for harvests will promote prosperity among indigenous communities for decades.
Together we will save the planet. Let's start today!
