Annual Beach Clean-Up Initiative
January 2rd, 2020
During our yearly “Praia Limpia” (Beach Clean-Up) Initiative, we travel to nearby beaches, together with our employees, their families and kids from local schools, to collect plastic which we then send to a recycling facility. This gives us the opportunity to educate employees, their families and the local community on the importance of reducing and recycling waste, while relieving the weight of the tourist season on local beaches. Over the course of this year we were able to collect a total of 10,707 polyethylene bottles.

Educating Local Children
January 3rd, 2020
Our Lead Agronomist, Henrique dos Santos Lopes, gave a lecture to local students on the harvesting, uses and importance of neem. Lectures like this allow us to let the local community learn and understand more about the work we do, and its importance not only for the environment, but also for global sustainability.
