The farm of 800 acres is administered by Tretti´s family and is dedicated to cattle, horses, and also production of salt. We have developed a three steps reforesting program: - A natural return to the forest enviroment, that was degraded by cattle farming, - Plantation of local species in selected areas, - And plantation of exotic species .
Today we are proud to have more than 30% of the farm covered by forests, which helps to mantain the natural habitat. Since 1977 we have been working in defending what has been declared a "National Wildlife Refuge", and we include the mangroves zones at the end of the Abangares River.
The area is very important because it has one of the last primary and secondary forests of the northern Puntarenas province.
The area covers three types of wet enviroments: mangles, sweet water, and a line on the Golfo de Nicoya shore. These ecosystems are of vital importance and they must be preserved.
