A new Green Cycle with our European volunteers

Sunday the 12th was a very special day for our community at Semillistas: we welcomed twelve young people from the European Solidarity Corps who will accompany us for the next two months in Órgiva! These volunteers are full of energy, eager to learn and above all, with the enthusiasm to make a difference in the reforestation and regeneration of our forests.

Training for planters

On the 10th of January, we took a very important step to move forward with our reforestation projects. We held a special training for all the people we are going to hire to carry out the sowing, a key moment in which we prepared ourselves for one of the most fundamental tasks: sowing with love and knowledge!

At Semillistas, we are excited to announce the launch of our crowdfunding campaign on the Goteo platform. This project is our response to the devastating fire of 2022 that devastated more than 5,000 hectares of the Sierra de los Guájares. But we are not giving up: we want to bring plant life back to this special area

Priming and Pre-germination: Reforestation Revolutionized

At Semillistas, we are always looking for ways to make reforestation more efficient and effective. Today we want to share with you one of our favorite techniques: priming, and how we combine it with pre-germination to overcome some of the biggest challenges in direct seeding.

The role of herbaceous plants in the regeneration of arid landscapes

When we talk about regenerating ecosystems, we usually think of big trees and lush forests. But what about semi-arid or arid areas where climate and soil impose their own rules? This is a subject that we at Semillistas are passionate about, and we would like to share some thoughts on the subject.

We're taking a little break to tell you some exciting things! As some of you already know, we've been busy as ants in summer lately and, in between all this hustle and bustle, we've been preparing something very special: our seeds for the next big sowing!
