Ayúdanos en nuestro proyecto de conservacion biologica de nuestra finca


The experience

Our project was born out of the urgent need to protect an oasis of biodiversity endangered by the growing urban development around Puyo, where urban areas are replacing rainforests. Since 2009, we have been committed to conserve and care for this remnant of urban forest, promoting reforestation efforts to ensure its preservation and restoration.
