❤️ Rooted in the Land
In Barra de Pacuare lives a family who has called this place home for generations. Long before eco-tourism, they were already protecting its animals, preserving its forest. Doña Lilly was born there 80 years ago and Freddy is the one who lives there all the time.
🌱 A Living Legacy
This project is not just about conservation. It’s about sharing a way of life that respects the earth. The family’s deep knowledge of biodiversity and local traditions is passed down with love.
🐒 Volunteering with Heart
When you join, you don’t just help the planet — you become part of a story. A story of resilience, wisdom, and commitment.
🌊 A Hidden Paradise
Barra de Pacuare is one of Costa Rica’s last untouched treasures — no roads, no mass tourism, just pure beauty. A place where monkeys swing freely and time follows the rhythm of the nature.
✨ An Invitation to Meaning
This is your chance to give back. To learn something real. To slow down and reconnect. Your hands will plant trees, but your heart will carry the experience forever.
