The Out of Danger Project

A channel for documenting our experiences and projects in the Sablan farm and our day to day life. We believe this farm serves as encouragement to others to convert farmland from more traditional crops to raising native trees in sustainable ways. See our Patreon page below for details.

Acquired in 2017, we have a vision of planting an eight ha. farm with the intent of harvesting a portion of the trees while leaving trees on the other portion to grow indefinitely as a native forest:
To help preserve species of native Philippine trees
To reforest previously-cleared areas with native, vulnerable, and threatened trees
To model how raising native Philippine trees can lead to profitable farming operations 
To provide information on species which are not commonly grown for income 
To create a source of rare native Philippine trees 
To sequester carbon in the form of a useful, valuable, and natural material
