Climate change poses the greatest threat to our future, but together, we can create lasting solutions. Support climate action to secure a better future for everyone. Your support helps plant food forests and improve the lives of people most affected by climate change.
Climate change, deforestation, and poverty are devastating communities worldwide, especially indigenous people who rely on their natural environment for survival. These issues are causing widespread droughts, wildfires, hurricanes, floods, and failing agriculture.
Unsustainable land use practices and deforestation are at the heart of these crises. Forests are being cleared for agriculture, grazing, and timber, leading to biodiversity loss, soil degradation, and increased carbon emissions.
Planting diverse food forests is a powerful solution. By growing a mix of tree species that provide food and income—like avocados, mangoes, oranges, lemons, guava, coffee and nuts—we create sustainable livelihoods. These food forests help sequester carbon, restore ecosystems, and reduce deforestation by offering economic incentives to protect trees.
Your support is vital. With your help, we can plant trees, restore ecosystems, and empower communities to build a sustainable future. Together, we can combat climate change and provide dignified livelihoods for those most affected by its impacts. Make a difference and donate today.
We run forest nurseries and support Indigenous communities in growing a variety of native trees. Our focus is on species that provide food, ensuring successful planting and long-term care of diverse tree species.
Follow our journey and find out how you are making a difference.
We plant a diverse mix of native trees - primarily fruits and nuts - to provide food, to protect water sources and to restore microclimates.
We work with indigenous and local communities - planning forest restoration, setting up forest nurseries and providing training and long-term support .
Our food forests are capturing carbon and reducing greenhouse gases, while supporting livelihoods and economic opportunities.
Your support helps us grow, planting more food forests and supporting indigenous people around the world.
We're currently planting 60+ tree species to capture carbon, cool temperatures, conserve water, and produce food.
With your support, food forests can grow to protect our planet and create sustainable livelihoods for the communities on the front line of climate devastation. Will you help?
Discover how we're transforming landscapes and lives. Every project is made possible by your support. Explore our work planting trees, restoring biodiversity, and supporting indigenous communities to produce food.
Our dedicated team combines expertise in agroforestry, community development, and environmental science. With years of hands-on experience in regions like Honduras and Latin America, we're committed to creating sustainable food forests and empowering local communities. Together we're creating a meaningful impact on the lives of many who have suffered from the effects of climate change.
Sean Hawkey studied forestry in Bangor, Wales, and rural development in Sussex, England, starting his career in Central America addressing development issues and indigenous needs. He then transitioned to journalism, spending over 12 years covering humanitarian issues, the climate crisis, and migration in 80 countries, with his work featured in 2,400 media outlets. Now, with Food Forest Carbon Capture, Sean brings his expertise in forestry and development to combat climate change. Alongside agronomist Delmis Paz, he began forest nurseries in Honduras in 1999 and continues to support indigenous communities and restore ecosystems.
Delmis Paz is an agricultural engineer with extensive experience in international organisations like the Irish Agency for Personnel Service Overseas, DanChurchAid, Christian Aid, and Catholic Relief Services. Specialising in agri-food systems, food sovereignty, risk management, and climate change adaptation, with a focus on gender. Delmis has worked closely with Indigenous groups, including the Maya Chortí and Lenca people, as well as the Afro-Honduran community. Motivated by the climate crisis she feels motivated to ‘sow hope with every tree planted’.
