Our restoration sites

Damoyu Demo Site 

Damoyu Demo Site was our very first restoration site, obtained in 2021. 

A 30 minutes’ drive West of Kunming, this site is easily accessible, but located directly in between Qipanshan forest and the Damoyu town reservoir. A degraded agricultural site, it was a perfect opportunity for restoration and for us it ticked all the boxes; degraded land, only accessible by foot after a 15 minute walk, a potential eco-corridor, and a water source nearby. 

 

The site’s is a bare hill with its hillsides partly covered in trees and shrubs. Soil at the flat top of the hill is heavily degraded and has very little top soil left. It is exposed to sun and wind,  and is prone to further erosion.

On the other side of the Damoyu town resevoir, but also bordering the Qipanshan forest, lays the land of environmental awareness raising organization 永续之土. This organization made their land available for restoration. A 20mu site, with 7mu which potential (and need) to be restored. 

 The soil is very similar to that of the demo site; eroded in many places, most top soil gone.
