Trees for Hope
Tree for Hope was born out of the need to respond to the ecological, social, and personal despair in the Fertile Crescent. Our journey began from a desire to help with the necessary transformations so that the land could recover fully to its natural intelligence. We offer the processes, skills, tools and means needed to initiate the ecological recovery and personal / social transformations. Together with our partners and volunteers we are engaged in the rewilding processes in the Wider Fertile Crescent* and a demonstration project in the Atlantic rainforests of Scotland.
Trees for Life
Trees for Life is a rewilding charity based in Findhorn, committed to creating large-scale environmental change in the Scottish Highlands.
