Hola friends,
In celebration of Earth Day and Arbor Day, FTPF is excited to announce we will be returning to the Peruvian Amazon in 2021 to plant fruit trees with families and farmers!
The region has been deeply affected by the hardships of the past year, and therefore we are really thrilled to be launching a 2021 planting campaign. Although we are still in the planning stages, we will likely be in the field in November-December, when our expert team will plant thousands of new trees, as well as collect data and perform aftercare on those already planted and distributed along the Amazon and Napo rivers.
This year is also exciting as we will begin to see the fruits of our labor (pun intended!) as many of the previously planted trees will be starting to bear fruit. For updates from the field and to see your generosity in action, follow FTPF on our Facebook and Instagram.
Gratefully,
The FTPF Team
PS: Depending on the situation in Peru regarding the pandemic and current health guidelines, FTPF may be welcoming volunteers to join us on the ground again this year. If you are interested, please fill out the form on our website. Gracias!
