Planting trees with impact in Peru
With our reforestation partner Camino Verde, it is our mission to restore the forest landscapes of the Amazon by strengthening forest communities. Our approach centers on linking restoration activities to the production of non-timber forest products that offer improvements to quality of life.

Protect, regenerate and understand the biodiversity in the Peruvian Amazon. The Amazon Regeneration program is about making reforestation tangible.
Every year, farmers, institutions, visitors, and students are invited to see restoration agroforestry live and in person at the reforestation center. We have already had our first Belgian intern staying there for 3 months and she was astonished by the beauty of the region. We want to share what we do, so others find their own inspiration. Spread sustainable ways of life and be a catalyst for fair, regenerative development.
Our partner farmers are part of a growing supply-chain enterprise implementing the strategies that work to restore the Amazon while improving livelihoods for families and communities. This program spreads seedlings and training and connects farmers to markets throughout the Peruvian Amazon, helping establish robust regenerative supply chains.
Agroforestry and Reforestation during the whole year.
We can plant the following tree species during the whole year except for dry season in September – October. The regions where the trees planted are Tambopata (Madre de Dios) and Loreto.
Reforestation
Go Forest does not focus solely on biodiversity but also aims to bring about behavioral changes to tackle the root causes of soil and deforestation problems. Each of us can have a positive impact on tomorrow’s world.

Care for communities
At Go Forest, we don’t just plant trees. We engage in much more, such as ensuring sustainable support for local communities. We do so by using the UN Sustainable Development Goals, which serve as a blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and in the future. Depending on the region and the project, you’ll be supporting different SDGs. Our project in Peru focuses on the following SDGs:

A project can only be fully discovered and known after actually visiting it. That is why in 2020, Sarah visited our project in Peru.
Let's plan(t) the future together.
Forests are an important player in the fight against global warming. A large portion of all the CO2 in the atmosphere is absorbed by the forests and stored in the form of organic carbon in the wood and soil.
Unfortunately, deforestation and land use change also contribute 17% to the greenhouse effect. One of the most important and simplest ways to counteract global warming is to create greater biodiversity by planting forests. This is exactly what we at Go Forest, in partnership with various companies, are doing.
