The work that was done was in vain because it did not yield. There was so little because we didn’t know how to cultivate. We kept trying and trying to do better, but we didn’t get the production we wanted.

Thanks to Plant With Purpose, now everything is different.

People need a good green space, with enough trees. After all, that was our purpose from the beginning of creation. We are supposed to live in a thriving environment, not in these conditions. Plant With Purpose’s projects are accompanied by planting and reforestation, because ultimately, that's what we need to try to have a better life.

I believe that it is essential to continue trying to save this planet. One way or another, we have to try. At least where we live. We do not know, in other parts, how they are doing it, but at least in what is our space we try to sow to be able to leave a legacy to our children.

Elias, a farmer in Mexico, dreamed of creating a self-sufficient ranch. Through Plant With Purpose’s training, he learned better farming practices, reforestation, and water conservation. “We want to change our philosophy,” Elias says, highlighting his shift toward sustainable living. He now grows fruit trees and protects soil with erosion barriers, improving his family’s income and the local ecosystem. Elias leads by example, encouraging others to care for the land. His story shows how restoring land strengthens both families and communities.

Antonio’s life changed when he joined a Purpose Group and learned about watershed management and environmental care. “I am inspired. I am a leader in my family and community,” he says. With training, he started reforestation projects and invested his savings in livestock, giving his family new financial security. He’s also working on water retention and eco-friendly infrastructure to support his community. “We now work together to protect our environment,” Antonio reflects. His story shows the power of leadership and unity.
