We are passionate about environmental conservation and community empowerment. Our mission is to make a positive impact on both nature and local communities. Join us on this journey by planting your own rainforest tree, restoring biodiversity, and creating a sustainable future for generations to come.

Our reforestation project "Bosque La Tigra" is located just 35 minutes from La Fortuna, near the Children's Eternal Rainforest, the largest private reserve en Central America. On the way we can marvel at the immense forested mountains that rise majestically in the background. One of the goals of the reforestation project is to create a corridor for the animals and plants to increase their habitat area.

Arriving at the project we will take a small path through the forest where our guide will give us all the important information about the project and its future prospects. Other information boards will give additional knowledge about different topics. Then we receive our little tree and go to the place where it will find its new home. We carefully place it and measure the GPS data so that we can always find it. For three years the tree will be cared for, then it must be strong enough to survive on its own. Feeling good, we recharge our batteries with a delicious snack of fresh fruit before continuing to our next adventure.

The Mendez family with their beautiful property and small agro-ecological farm is already waiting for us. Here we will learn more about the day to day life of a traditional Costa Rican family and explore their pepper, vanilla, yucca, banana and corn plantations.

At the end of the tour, we will enjoy a delicious lunch with organic ingredients from the farm, cooked on a wood-burning stove. Expect an authentic taste of a traditional Costa Rican meal.
