The Orchid Conservation Alliance has announced a new fundraising campaign to support the purchase of rainforest land in Serra Bonita, located in the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest Reserve, a precious orchid rich area in Brazil once used by the cocoa industry. Each acre of rainforest can be purchased and protected for $200 helping extend the existing 4700 acres of the reserve. SWROGA membership voted to support this project with a one time $1000 grant. In addition, two individual societies stepped up and agreed to purchase an additional acre each. For more information, please visit the OCA’s website.
