## Elevator Pitch
Our main goal is to protect and restore the 3 hectares of forest on our property located in San Antonio, Guapiles, Limón, Costa Rica.
We aim to care for the timber and fruit trees to support the local bird species.

## Climate Problem
Carbon sequestration and the protection of microorganisms

## Solution
Do not cut down trees or use herbicides near forested areas

## Revenue Model
Tours are available to the wooded area for birdwatching

## Target Market
Rural tourism

## Social Impact
Persons Belonging to National or Ethnic - Religious and Linguistic Minorities, Women

## Demand Evidence
Because many forested areas were cleared for the cultivation of pineapples, cassava, and bananas

## Competitors
As far as I know, there's no one else in our area who does the same thing

## Founder Expertise
For the past 10 years, we have been protecting the forest area and taking care of the animals that live there

## External Support
The Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources has helped us obtain a tax exemption for the 3 hectares of forest
