Reforestation, Preservation, Springs Protection and Wildlife Protection, some of our programs at TreeLand Farms, are of great interest to GreenLagoon and the Community that surrounds us. To accomplish our Conservation objectives, we have established several well difined subdivisions.

In orden to fund great portion of our efforts, GreenLagoon is now selling the TreeLand Card to Nature Lovers, Travelers, Individuals, Students, Schools, Groups, Communities, Companies and Organizations that may be interested in investing in Reforestation and in Mitigation of Gas-Carbon Consumption Initiatives. Our goal is to plant 1,000,000 trees in our properties and contribute to decrease Global Warming. Funds coming from the sales of the TreeLand Cards, will allow us to purchase the trees, plant and maintain them for 6 years until maturity. Some of the procedes will be donated to www.HopeAndWellness4Kids.com, a program of GreenLagoon that contributes solving some of the needs of the kids in our community.
