Reforestation & Restoration

More than 80% of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta's forest cover has been deforested. TierrAmar contributes to its forest restoration and to employment generation by planting native trees in this biodiversity hotspot.

TierrAmar has planted 5,000+ trees in the Sierra, generating direct employment in ecological restoration by employing Kogi indians, single mothers and local farmers to carry out the following activities:

​

âž¾ Native seed recollection throughout the forest.

âž¾ Germination of these seeds in the Janindu Natural Reserve’s nursery.

âž¾ Care for and water the nursery’s seedlings.

âž¾ Plant the seedlings around dry streams and watercourses, on eroded land, in former illicit crop plantations, and in coffee and cocoa agroforestry crops.

âž¾ Water and monitor the planted trees.


REDUCE YOUR COMPANY'S CARBON FOOTPRINT

​

  • If you’re a business, compensate for your products and services carbon footprint by financing concrete regeneration actions through your sales.  

  • 4,046 m2 (0.0004 Ha) of trees planted in the Janindu Natural Reserve can sequester 180 metric tonnes of CO2.  

  • The cost of this action for your business will result in attracting buyers looking for sustainable trade.

  • Contact us for more information on compensation.
