Mission

 Working together to create a just and sustainable world through transformative farmer training that nourishes communities and the Earth.

Purpose

More than half of the world’s tropical forests are already gone and we are losing the other half at the rate of one acre every second. As a result, more than half the species of plants and animals in the world are disappearing, along with carbon stores, which stabilize the climate.

30-40% of deforestation is the result of small scale farmers.

There are 500 million small farmers in the world.

They have the potential to drawdown 6 billion tons of carbon - if they get enough support.

Vision

People and the environment thriving in a healthy balance.

Imagine relying on a small plot of land to feed your family, only to watch the soil weaken with every harvest.

This is the reality for most of the world’s family farmers using conventional farming practices that degrade the land, who don’t know any other way to provide for their families.

There is another way that’s better for people and the planet.

To date, Sustainable Harvest International has helped:

4,000 low-income farmers

restore 30,000 acres

while planting 5 million trees.

And we’re just getting started.

Regenerative farming

• restores ecosystems

• reduces global poverty, and

• decreases the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

Since 1997, Sustainable Harvest International has provided customized training to farming families in Central America.

Our proven model empowers low-income farmers with resources:

• to implement alternatives to conventional agriculture,

• sustain the land for future generations of farmers,

• halt tropical deforestation, and

• build strong, self-supporting communities through agribusiness.
