Burkei Reserva Natural Project was established in Panama, Central America in order to restore a property land into a private protected area (Nature Reserve) with an ecosystem that can support the diverse plant, fungus, insect and animal species and to eventually offer jungle stays to paying visitors.

About the work exchange program

Words from your host

“Part of the property is tropical rain forest with water streams and the areas previously used for cattle grazing are being reforested with indigenous fruit trees, a variety of hardwood species from the region and underbrush, to sustain the forest birds, animals, insects, butterflies, snakes and frogs. Our aim is to plant 63 different indigenous tree species to replicate the plant diversity found in forest of this region.
We are working to create a safe environment for the birds and wildlife to return to the area as years of hunting / poaching has impacted negatively on the environment.”
