Why Your Support Matters

The Bioarca resides in 140 acres of primary and secondary rainforest. Access is by trail. Most of the Bioarca is protected by us as a biosphere preserve for prime tapir habitat, while 10% is managed to supply food and habitat for tapirs, tayras and other mammals including ourselves and our guests. 

We need volunteers to assist with trail building and development of the organic permaculture farm, but our current infrastructure limits volunteer opportunities.

Your financial contribution, no matter the size, goes a long way in supporting our initiatives. Helps us purchase essential supplies, hire local staff, and expand our outreach efforts.

Why Your Support Matters

By supporting our mission, you are making a profound difference in the preservation of biodiversity and the empowerment of local communities. Here’s why your donation matters:

1. Protecting Endangered Species: Your contribution directly supports the conservation of the critically endangered Baird’s tapir and other precious plant and animal species that call our rainforest home. With your help, we can create a sanctuary that safeguards their habitat and ensures their survival for generations to come.

2. Nurturing Sustainable Farming: We believe in regenerative practices that heal the land and promote a sustainable future. Your support enables us to transform the soil, implement permaculture techniques, and cultivate organic fruits and vegetables that nourish both humans and wildlife. Together, we can forge a path towards food security and environmental harmony.

3. Empowering Indigenous Communities: Our vision embraces the wisdom and traditions of the local indigenous population. By donating, you provide opportunities for the indigenous community to actively participate in the permaculture farm, fostering cultural preservation, economic empowerment, and knowledge exchange. Your support is an investment in the cultural heritage of the Osa Peninsula.
