All of our seedlings are donated to communities and landowners who are committed to reforestation. Large numbers of trees are planted on communal lands owned by indigenous communities and ejidos.
Before we can donate, the seeds are planted in our greenhouses within raised garden beds where they grow into small seedlings. Once at this stage, they are transplanted into individual plant containers, where they will grow to about six to eight inches. At around 12” in height they are ready to be transferred into individual transportation containers and are ready for donation.
With help from volunteers and communities who are committed to reforestation, we are able to assist in the planting of the seedlings. Each year the demand for trees to plant exceeds the number we are able to give away.
After planting, we monitor the health and survival rate of the trees,
conditions of the land and the sustainability practices of the landowners and communities.
