OUR PROJECTS
Why Bolivia?
Bolivia’s unparalleled biological diversity and strategic commercial location in the heart of South America, within three major watersheds—Amazon, La Plata, and Altiplano—make it an invaluable asset for high-return investments in sustainable development. With 44% of its territory covered by the Amazon biome, and a total of 74% forested land across vital ecosystems like the Chaco, Chiquitano, and Pantanal, Bolivia is ripe for projects that capitalize on its natural wealth. Additionally, the Andes or Altiplano, accounting for 26% of the territory, play a critical role with their glaciers and other natural resources. The rich biodiversity and vast land provide a unique opportunity to build a strong value chain for high-demand products, including superfoods, medicinal plants, and specialty woods, all destined for the global market.
​
Our partnerships with key institutions such as the Autonomous Government of Santa Cruz, the Autonomous Government of Roboré, CIAT, and Swisscontact, along with other allies, bring significant economic and social benefits to our projects. These collaborations amplify our impact by providing essential resources, technical expertise, and local support, driving economic growth and enhancing the livelihoods of local communities. Together, we’re creating jobs, building sustainable industries, and fostering a network that values both profitability and long-term ecological health, ensuring that Bolivia’s natural resources contribute to both national and global markets.
​
By integrating Indigenous communities into these initiatives, we secure access to over 24 million hectares, creating a scalable, export-ready pipeline that harnesses Bolivia’s biodiversity for sustainable and profitable production. Bolivia's urgency in addressing forest loss opens doors for investors to leverage reforestation efforts and biodiversity credits while adding tangible value through processing and exportation. Our approach aligns economic growth with environmental stewardship, positioning Bolivia as a high-value, profit-generating hub for natural resource-based industries.

Superfoods, Nutraceuticals, Medicinal, and Aromatic Plants
Our forests are home to an incredible diversity of plants, seeds, fruits, and barks, which ancient tribes have used for centuries as food, medicine, and more. Our focus is on creating a synergy between ancestral knowledge and modern technology to develop marketable and exportable products. By doing so, we empower our indigenous communities to generate sustainable income while preserving and protecting the forests they call home.
We are currently expanding the cultivation and foraging of Chiquitana Almonds also known as Baru Nut (Dipteryx Alata) across various communities. Chiquitana Almonds (Baru Nut) are a superfood rich in protein, fiber, antioxidants, zinc, potassium, and vitamin E, while being low in calories and saturated fats. Women are the main actors leading the foraging and production of Chiquitana Almonds (Baru Nuts). In addition to our work with local communities, we have established a pilot plantation to ensure fair pricing and promote fair trade practices with these communities.
​
In the short term, and to help with the funding of the long-term R&D, we are selling
products into the world markets including:
​
-
Brazil Nuts
-
Baru Nuts (Novel Foods status in progress EU/UK)
-
Quinoa including Quinoa Royal

Support sustainable economic development.
Investment in the Plantation of Native Productive Trees
Our private tree plantation initiative offers a unique investment opportunity to plant on our already deforested and degraded lands, or through our available land bank, turning unproductive areas into revenue-generating assets. Through carefully selected native species, such as Baru nuts (Dipteryx alata), investors can benefit from the sale of high-value fruits, by-products, and carbon credits while actively contributing to environmental restoration.
​
This initiative is structured as an Accidental Partnership, with profits shared based on a clear, pre-determined percentage. With high potential for financial returns, we offer key metrics like the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) and Net Present Value (NPV) to give investors a detailed view of the financial benefits. We encourage including data such as average yields per hectare, growth cycles, and estimated annual revenue to provide a complete financial outlook.

Urban and Rural Afforestation
Urban Trees: The importance and benefits of trees in our cities cannot be overstated. We have established agreements with various levels of government to plant native trees in boulevards, schools, parks, and green spaces, enhancing urban environments and improving the quality of life for residents. We continuously educate young people and adults on the benefits and importance of trees. We offer afforestation packages for individuals and businesses.
Trees in Indigenous Communities: We work closely with indigenous communities to plant native, productive trees in deforested areas of their regions. This initiative not only helps restore the environment but also, through workshops, training, and technical advice, fosters the understanding that trees are more valuable alive than dead, encouraging communities to protect and preserve their forests, turning them into dedicated guardians of these vital ecosystems. You can purchase afforestation packages to help vulnerable communities.
​
Ensuring transparency is important that is why each tree planted is tagged with a QR code, providing access to its GPS location, measurements, images, and health status, all of which can be viewed through our online dashboard.
Contribute to mitigation and help create a greener world.
Regenerative Livestock and Agronomy with Trees
As the years pass, livestock farming and agriculture have evolved to maximize production while ensuring food security and resilience to climate change. Systems like integrated crop-livestock-forestry offer an opportunity to incorporate trees into our productive landscapes. Each type of soil, with its unique characteristics, requires a native tree species that is well-suited to the environment. In livestock farming, trees reduce animal stress, thereby maximizing the conversion of grass to meat. Our pioneering species, such as the Chiquitana almond (Baru nut), is a legume that enriches the soil with nitrogen. It is hardy, requires minimal maintenance once established, and, like all trees, creates a beneficial microclimate.
We operate a nursery to meet the demand for productive and native tree seedlings, and we offer planting, monitoring, and technical advisory services. We can design plantations with trees exclusively or in linear arrangements alongside other systems. Once your trees begin to bear fruit, we will purchase the harvest at market prices. With the Chiquitana almond (Baru nut) being a superfood, this venture is highly profitable.
Maximize your profits while nurturing the land with every tree you plant.
Indigenous Communities Program
In Bolivia, indigenous communities occupy 22% of the territory, with their forests often bordering vital forest reserves. Collaborating with these communities is essential for successful reforestation and sustainable forestry projects. By educating and involving them in the cultivation and utilization of native plants, combining ancestral knowledge with modern techniques to add value, we help foster a sustainable bioeconomy. This approach empowers communities to protect the forest and improve their livelihoods, without resorting to logging.
Many of these communities live in poverty, lacking basic resources like electricity and potable water. Through education on the value of superfoods such as the Chiquitana almond, as well as other forest products like seeds and medicinal plants, we provide the opportunity for sustainable income generation. Currently, we are working with native Chiquitana almond trees, planting them in deforested and degraded lands, while promoting the integration of these trees with other crops.
Empower indigenous communities to protect the Amazon while generating sustainable incomes through the cultivation of native trees and superfoods.
Contribute to reforestation and sustainable livelihoods in indigenous communities.
Carbon and Biodiversity Credits (In Development)
We are developing an innovative system to monetize standing forests by reducing emissions through the prevention of deforestation and degradation. Using new plantations with Afforestation, Reforestation, and Revegetation methodologies, alongside advanced carbon sequestration techniques, we go beyond carbon credits by integrating biodiversity assets. This comprehensive approach helps combat deforestation, incentivizes forest conservation, and fosters a shift toward valuing biodiversity. By assigning measurable value to the ecosystem services our forests provide, we aim to protect natural habitats while creating a sustainable revenue stream.
