Lets turn these cattle pastures into RAINFOREST

We are thrilled to show our Tree Friends our fabulous new collaboration with the Costa Rican farm family of Joaquin who inherited one of the biggest, most destroyed cattle farms in the entire southern zone. Its been a hard job planting because of the difficult walk into the farm and the lack of rain for 3 months during the rainy season because of EL NINO: Psychologically, it is a mind and body challenge  to dig holes in concrete hard compacted land and plant trees with no rain. Literally an act of faith every single day.

The experience and knowledge that what we are doing planting these trees with support from you our fabulous sponsors is beneficial for every living being on earth. That is what wakes us up early every day and encourages us to stay positive especially when difficult things happen like the cows busting through the fence and eating over 200 trees. That costs us money and we replace every tree because we guarantee your tree to grow to 25 years and sequester over 2 tons of carbon dioxide per tree. The amount of water recycling and healthy cloud evo transpiration fpr secure water cycles around the planet also impresses us on the ground to see the streams and water springs literally begin to flow again.

This land inherited by the 4 children of JOaquin is ravaged and damaged. There are 5 water springs we will bring back to life and i am sure that streams will begin to flow as well. Just wait. We will show you the process. And the success. Just like all the other trees we plant, we make  sure they grow and do their generous giving for the world.

Dear Sponsors...  we want to recognize you for your generous GIVE BACK!! Times are tough and money has been tight but you understand that giving back to earth is critical for long term survival.- We cannot keep extracting and expect our climate to be habitable. Our hard work all together will pay off for futurte generations. This is why you support us and just maybe you forward to a friend and ask a friend to sponsor a tree too. We grow with word of mouth. We grow with the shared love commitment and dedication and discipline. And yes,  the secret ingredient is always LOVE and gratitude!
