🌳 Healing the Land: A Story of Restoration

For decades, Costa Rica faced a heartbreaking reality: Banks would only lend money to farmers if they cleared their land of trees for cattle ranching.

This practice fueled one of the worst waves of deforestation in our history—stripping ecosystems, wildlife, and the soul of our land.

But today, the story is changing. And you can be part of that change!

🌱 From Pasture to Paradise 

Over the last 10 years, we at Ranch Villa Arenal have been reclaiming what was lost.

What was once open cow pasture is now a flourishing biological corridor.
To date, we’ve planted over 2,000 native trees — restoring ecosystems, enriching the soil, and welcoming back birds, monkeys, and more.

Every tree planted is a promise to the Earth.

🌟 Planing the Future, One Child at a Time

We believe restoration starts with education.

Each year, local schoolchildren come to plant trees and learn about conservation.

Watching them return years later — finding their tree
grown tall — is a living reminder of what we’re building together.

By planting today, you're shaping tomorrow’s stewards.

👉 Help us inspire the next generation.
