Las Azucenas Biosphere: Est. 2000

2000 - Present

We started with 16 hectares of degraded cattle farmland.

It only took 20 years to prove the concepts and methods used by Las Azucenas.

We restored a dead rainforest to its former natural grandeur and splendor.

The Las Azucenas Biosphere now protects a combined 1000+ endangered species of trees, plants, insects, and animals.
