Healing The Land, Tree By Tree
Our reforestation and land restoration efforts begin with local seeds, shared knowledge, and a deep understanding of place. From mountaintops to valleys, we’re rebuilding ecosystems, one rooted tree and one resilient farm at a time.
Why we restore the Land
Centuries of extractive farming and deforestation have left Haiti's soil depleted and its ecosystems fragmented. What remains is land that has been asked to give more than it can hold.
Restoration here is not abstract. It looks like propagating native trees, rebuilding soil structure, reducing erosion, protecting water sources, and helping farming families grow systems that can hold life again over time. Using regenerative techniques, we work to rebuild the living relationships between soil, water, canopy, and community that make farming resilient across generations.
Our Approach
-
Native & Useful Species
We prioritize trees that serve ecological and community needs, from erosion control to food security.
-
Regenerative Agroforestry
Trees and crops are planted in syntropic rows to mimic natural forest layers and improve soil health over time.
-
Community-Led Restoration
Land stewards guide every step, from seed saving to planting, ensuring solutions are local and lasting.
What Regeneration Looks Like
-
25,000+ Trees Freely Distributed
Each tree planted is a living investment in Haiti’s future. These trees don’t just provide fruit. They create shade, restore soil, attract wildlife, and cool the land. From towering breadfruit to fast-growing support species, every sapling is part of a larger living system.
-
50+ Farming Families Supported
We don’t work for communities we work with them. These farmers are caretakers of their own land, empowered with knowledge and resources to restore it. With our support, they’re growing food, rebuilding ecosystems, and inspiring their neighbors to do the same.
-
7 Microclimates Restored
Dry, degraded land has become living, breathing ecosystems. Shade has returned, water holds in the soil longer, and native life is beginning to thrive again. These pockets of restoration offer proof that change is possible, one plot at a time.
-
Countless Seeds Shared
Every seed is a story, a memory, and a promise. By sharing seeds freely, not selling them, we preserve biodiversity, protect traditional varieties, and plant the idea that food sovereignty starts with access.
-
75+ Workshops & Trainings Hosted
Learning happens on the land, not in classrooms. Our workshops bring farmers, youth, and community members together to practice regenerative techniques firsthand. From soil building and tree planting to seed saving and erosion control, every session is grounded in local knowledge and real application.
