In the Finca Leola tree nursery, we grow trees both from seeds that we buy and from seedlings and seeds that we collect from the forest.

This group of photos shows how we collect seedlings and seeds from the edge of the rainforest.

After the bagged seedlings stabilize under the trees in their natural habitat, we use horses to carry them up the hill to the nursery.

Here are some exterior and interior photos of the tree nursery, or vivero.
