Who Are These Seedy Characters?

Yes, these seedy characters are, from left to right, Joe Silverman from La Jolla, California and Wally Razanauskas from Quebrada Grande, Costa Rica. This past Tuesday, July 31st they donated 13,464 seeds of 8 different species of precious woods to the La Reserva nursery. These include, 2 types of Mahogany, Cortesa Negro, Teak, Roble Sabana, Guapinol and Cocobolo. They went all the way to the CATIE seed bank in Turrialba and bought them for us. We will give Joe, who purchased the seeds, enough seedlings from the La Reserva nursery in exchange for the money he spent for the seeds, but imagine in the coming years how many endangered,
hardwood seedlings we will be able to offer to the participants in our forest regeneration program.

Thank you Joe and Wally for your generous contribution to La Reserva. You will be the proud parents of some beautiful trees in the future.

 

Here are Robin Sky Charles and Steven Ruiz Chavez filling nursery bags to plant all of the new seeds in. They have been volunteering here every Thursday now for the past few weeks. Thank you, Robin and Steven, you are doing a great job and helping the Earth while you are at it.

These are the seedy characters. If only everyone could be as seedy as them. We are expanding the La Reserva nursery and now.....
