Let's bring back
forests together

 

Restore Nature Foundation

Restore Nature Foundation (RNF) is an NGO that restores forest ecosystems in Southern Portugal: one of the driest, most fire risky and degraded areas of Europe. Here, on the frontline, we are dedicated to use the power of nature to turn things around.

We empower local projects and land regenerators to realize regional impact. Together we work on regenerative solutions to combat desertification and restore nature.

Forests ecosystems are vital for:

  • Preserving water and biodiversity
  • Creating fertile soil
  • Storing massive amounts of CO2
  • Creating the air we breath and many other products
  • Connecting us to our natural environment

Imitating the original forest: it's layers and species
Restoring the watercycle
Catching water in the landscape, hydrating the land
Improving
soil conditions
Organic matter, compost, fungi, microorganisms

We

Scale up impact
We empower local regenerators to restore forest systems while creating strong community connections.
Fridays for Future
We organize accessible action events where people can connect with, learn about and have a positive impact on nature. It's a lot of fun too!
Nature education
Even more important then regenerating land is teaching others how to do so. We facilitate nature education workshops, events, classes for kids and adults.
