As part of REGUA's land purchase strategy for conserving the Guapiacu watershed, "km 12" area was acquired in 2021 with the generous support of Boden Company. Seven hectares of degraded land were restored (with over 100 different Atlantic Forest species grown in REGUA's nursery) through Projeto Guapiaçu.
REGUA's Km 12 restoration initiative was included in "Bosques da Memória" national campaign which consisted in the planting of native trees in memory of those lost to Covid-19 and in gratitude to front-line health professionals working in Brazil. A young, healthy and vibrant forest is developing under REGUA's surveillance for posterity.
