Stardew Valley in the Rainforest

Plantaciones Edelman, founded in 2011, is a project in Costa Rica that aims to protect the rain forest. It offers you (and us) to become tree-patrons. The project plants extreme rare trees, among others the Dipteryx oleifera, a tree that is home to the endangered Great Green Macaw. The project is run by people we know in person, it provides full transparency with regular pictures of the trees – visits are possible.

You may wonder what the difference is to all the other reforestation and C02 compensation projects out there?

1. They own the properties on which the trees are planted

2. They keep track of the trees and clear them regularly for at least four years until they are big enough to survive on their own

3. Their trees are never cut down

4. Their trees help to restore the habitat of the Great Green Macaw – a rare and sympathetic green parrot

gamesweekberlin has become a tree-patron for 15 trees so far, and we are looking forward to increase our engagement.
