Stronger than ever, the BJF nursery begins producing seedlings for the next rainy season

By 15. April 2024April 23rd, 2024News Home

As many of you already know, in October last year, our nursery was hit by a strong storm with strong winds in Santana do Araguaia (PA). At the time, we lost several seedlings that would be taken to the restoration areas and our inside nursery suffered severe damage to its structure.

BEFORE THE STORM

AFTER THE STORM

After a fundraising campaign and thanks to contributions from our supporters, during March, we were able to rebuild our large-scale nursery with a reinforced structure to make our nursery stronger and more resilient than ever!

Check out the video that our field team prepared to show you what our new shade house is like:

START OF SEEDLING PRODUCTION FOR THE NEXT PLANTING SEASON

With the nursery rebuilt and operating at full capacity, the BJF Nursery Team has already started producing seedlings that will be planted in the next rainy season. Check out some images of the Black Jaguar Foundation Nursery, all green and full of future trees from the Araguaia Biodiversity Corridor:
