NIH Exchange Project visit to Costa Rica - Monitoring trees and bio-fertiliser workshop
The 5:00am start was worthwhile when the group was treated to these views while helping to monitor the growth of native trees!
These trees all consist of native species planted by junior park rangers to help reforest the area.
In the afternoon, everyone got stuck-in with a bio fertiliser workshop run by Helena from the Corcovado Foundation
Ilaria and Maylis were also busy in the hostel kitchen, helping Chef Catalina prepare two types of salad as well as Escabeche. They also cooked rice, black beans and a beef stew for dinner.
In the evening there was time for everyone to relax and play with the bio hostel’s resident cat!
