Team Cerro Nara
Conserving biodiversity and globally significant ecosystems of Central Pacific Costa Rica
Who We Are
Our Mission
To conserve biodiversity and globally significant ecosystems of Central Pacific Costa Rica by implementing ecosystem stewardship, providing access to primary rainforest for scientific study, education and training, and creating sustainable economic opportunities to local communities in Costa Rica and abroad.
Our Vision
We envision a world where communities are actively engaged in the preservation of their natural environments, where biodiversity thrives, and sustainable practices are the norm, not the exception.
Our History
Private landowners have been the stewards of 5,500 acres of conservation lands since 1991, funding all aspects of implementing, maintaining and protecting these lands. Team Cerro Nara 501(c)(3) was initiated in 2020 to meet the demands of furthering and managing an entire BioRegion and the watersheds of Rio Naranjo and Savegre rivers, and the Cerro Nara Mountain Biosphere.
Our Achievements
From initiating large-scale reforestation projects to influencing local conservation policies, our achievements inspire us to keep pushing forward. At Team Cerro Nara, we are committed to nurturing and regenerating the natural ecosystems of our planet through innovative conservation practices and sustainable design.
Make a Difference
Adopt a Tree
Fund the planting and care of a native tree species in our reforestation area. Each tree helps restore the rainforest canopy and provides habitat for local wildlife.
Steward an Acre
Support the protection and maintenance of one acre of primary rainforest in the Cerro Nara Mountain Biosphere for one year.
Sponsor a Ranger
Help fund a ranger to protect the wildlife and forest ecosystem for one month. Rangers patrol the conservation lands and monitor for poaching activity.
