Costa Rica  Environment
The project is located in the Maleku Reserve and has an area size of 2.5 hectares. The project is a 10-meter wide corridor along the Rio Sol on Ever's property. Last year on the other side of the Rio Sol, LRFF planted 35.000 trees with success on the Rio Sol Biological Corridor project. We saw the trees we planted last year from Ever's side when we surveyed it. The habitat for flora and fauna along the river will expand and the Maleku will slowly regain their lost native forests. project reportread updates from the field
