Amazon Rainforest

Peru Trees

 

Recent research indicates that the best place to plant trees to combat climate change is down by the Equator. We have partnered with Ecotribal and Ashaninka treeplanters to give you the option of having your tree planted near Tinkareni in the Amazonian rainforest of Peru. Planting will begin in the rainy season (October) and you can choose from these rainforest species. We will notify you by email once your tree has been planted.

Avocado - Local name Palta. Originates in Asia and provides a nutritious food crop
  Bolaina - 4 of its 15 species are found in Peru including Mollia gracilis, grows over 20 feet and is anothor good indigenous timber.

Mahogany - Local name Caoba . Peru boasts just one native mahogany species, Swietenia macrophylla, a deciduous tree which grows up to 40m with buttresses. Highly sought after since the 17th Century but it is only since 2002 that illegal logging of mahogany has reached the Ashaninka region of the Peruvian rainforest.
