Haiti Reforestation Partnership

The Comprehensive Development Project (CODEP) is a Haitian recognized NGO that is reforesting the barren mountains of Central Haiti. The CODEP people have learned how to plant seedlings on steep barren slopes, shield them from the blasting sun with grassy perimeters, renew the topsoil, clean the water, prevent further erosion, and allow gardens to prosper. Trees have been the key to the now realistic hope of the CODEP folks for economic prosperity and environmental sustainability.
