Project description

Our mission is to restore degraded tropical ecoystems, with our core projects being: Reforestation, Wildlife Conservation, and Education.

Tropical forest cover has declined between 35-50% since the pre-industrial era. The loss of these forests has devastating effects at every level: local biodiversity and ecosystem function, global climate patterns, as well as for humans relying on the services provided by forests, including clean water, clean air, medicines, and food.

Between 1900 and 2006, forest cover in Thailand decreased from an estimated 85% to less than 25%. This rapid deforestation can be explained by two principal causes: the harvest of lucrative timber such as teak and rosewood as well as a sharp increase in land use change toward urban development and agriculture in order to support Thailand’s booming population growth.

It is our goal to implement practical, proven methods of forest restoration in order to mitigate the damages resulting from deforestation and forest degradation. We strive for an optimal balance between widespread and effective forest restoration – measured by the conservation of biodiversity, ecological health, and carbon sequestration – in conjunction with improving the economic and environmental quality of life for the local communities within our engaged region. CNF aims to be an ambassador for forest restoration, sustainable land practices and wildlife conservation in Northern Thailand.
