While we can't replace centuries of natural growth, our science-backed methods help degraded land rebound faster—creating biodiverse ecosystems that mimic old-growth forests.
We plant native canopy trees, understory shrubs, and groundcover plants simultaneously to jumpstart ecological interactions that normally take decades.
Fungal inoculants and nurse logs introduce mycorrhizal networks—nature's "wood wide web"—to share nutrients and boost seedling survival.
Planting 3-5x denser than natural succession forces competition, speeding up natural selection for the hardiest trees.
Our plantings include these keystone species for Pennsylvania forests:
Site prep, mycorrhizal inoculation, and dense planting (3,000+ trees/acre).
Quarterly health checks, invasive species removal, and soil amendments.
Thinning weakest trees, adding decay logs, and monitoring wildlife return.
After 5 years, the ecosystem is resilient enough to continue maturing without human intervention.
