REFORESTACIÓN
VOLUNTEERING
Program description
Our experience as farmers and foresters has made us aware of the importance of nature and the fundamental role that every tree plays on our planet. In our family business dedicated to nature tourism, we want to contribute to the reforestation of the Amazon rainforest, which in some areas has suffered severe deforestation. That's why we are establishing native tree plantations in this part of the Amazon.
And we want you to be part of this great effort. Let's plant a tree and help keep our planet green for the future.
This volunteer opportunity allows you to immerse yourself in conservation and community development projects, while enjoying one of the most biodiverse places on the planet.
During your time as a volunteer, you'll be able to live alongside the local people and understand their way of thinking. It's a fantastic opportunity to discover this unforgettable place, rich in wildlife.
General Itinerary
We collect seeds and germinate them in our specialized nursery. We plant the new trees so they can thrive. In addition, we prune the trees previously planted during our reforestation project so they can continue to grow.
You work Monday through Friday, about four hours a day. In the afternoon, you have time for various activities. For example, you can research plants, observe reptiles, birds, and other animals, or take a nighttime walk.
On Saturdays, activities only take place until noon.
Sundays are free.
