About Program
Our forest reforestation and restoration project aims to replant trees that have been, or are currently targeted by local loggers and that are in danger of becoming locally extinct. By doing this we hope to help this ecosystem by restoring important habitats for the local fauna.
Activities of this program may include: Seed collection and germination, plant saplings in strategic locations in the forest, record GIS coordinates of planted saplings, monitor growth of saplings.
You will be provided with training on the methods used as well as the identification of species in the field.

Location
Peru is treasured for its gastronomy, Incan history, and stunning Andes mountains. As you travel, you will notice the pride the Peruvians have for their heritage of having been not only the Incan empire but Spain's South American empire. Peru's eco-tourism is growing the quickest of any South American country. If you are looking to tap into a currently less-frequented travel destination, pick Peru.
