Therefore, we at Schools for Chiapas now find ourselves cooperating in the creation of a number of tropical tree nurseries. Teltal, Totzil, Chol, Mam, Tojolabal, and Zoque men, women, and children are all planting trees ~ often in association with community-based autonomous, indigenous schools.
These exciting new nursery / reforestation efforts are now providing Zapatista autonomous, indigenous communities with medicinal trees such as Neem; a wide variety of fruit trees like coffee and citrus; construction grade bamboo; as well as trees such as Teak and Mahogany which are native to the forests and jungles of Chiapas.
Individuals and organizations seeking to neutralize their carbon-load usage through the planting of trees – which is to say anyone who wishes to help save our Mother Earth - are welcome to support the community directed nursery / reforestation programs of the Zapatistas in Chiapas, Mexico.
