community development

The Green Earth Project is an initiative promoting environmental sustainability and conservation. The project focuses on raising awareness about the importance of protecting the planet and reducing our carbon footprint through various activities such as tree planting. By working together, we can build a better future for ourselves and future generations. Join us in this important mission to create a greener and more sustainable world.

During your guided hiking tour to Acatenango Volcano, we offer you the opportunity to take a seedling tree to our base camp. This tree symbolizes your contribution to reforestation efforts and supports the restoration of the volcano’s natural habitat.

Pay $5

to have a local person bring up a seedling tree for you

For a small fee of $5, you can have a local person bring up a seedling tree to our base camp on your behalf and plant it in the forest. This initiative provides an alternative for guests and ensures that the local community benefits from employment opportunities related to the reforestation program.

 

our reforestation workers

Our reforestation workers, knowledgeable about the local ecosystem, carefully select and plant the trees, ensuring they suit the volcanic terrain. They take the seedling trees up to the top, planting them strategically to maximize their impact on restoring the volcano’s natural habitat.

These dedicated workers also care for the seedling trees, monitoring their growth and providing necessary support to ensure their healthy development. Their expertise and dedication play a crucial role in the success of our reforestation program, as they contribute to the long-term sustainability of Acatenango Volcano’s unique ecosystem.
