Death is a subject that is an important part of human life. In Michoacán it is conceived as a constant circle. The dead leave a tangible mark that is celebrated in an intangible way, they mark the way in which the living perceive the dead and the idea of death, modifiable according to each family. The image of death with a feeling of absence and fear in the face of death, the thought about the continuity of life after death.
At Ejido Verde we admire tradition and pay tribute to it.
Here on earth is the region of fleeting moment.
Is it also like that in the place where you live in some way?
Does one rejoice there? Is there friendship there?
Or have we only come here on earth to meet our faces?
(Náhuatl Poetry Fragment)

We proudly present our December 2022 Star Owner, Benedicta Bravo Jerónimo, who mentions that joining Ejido Verde gives her the security of seeing the forests recovered on her lands. She, along with her sons and daughters -who value the sources of work that are opening up in the Communities- are sure that the resin that will be harvested from their plantations will bring benefits to their lives.
COMMUNITY WEALTH + REFORESTATION + RETURN ON INVESTMENT = EJIDO VERDE
In alliance with Ejidos, Indigenous Communities and land owners to integrate native pine species with high resin yield.
Technical assistance, training and acquisition of resin production.
The credits are paid in kind, they are repaid with the same resin production from forest plantations. Surplus resin production will be purchased from them at market price.
Ejido Verde contributes to strengthening the governance and efficient administration of the natural resources of the land in each community: by building relationships with the community based on mutual trust, Ejido Verde has the capacity to promote healthy forests, take advantage of financial resources and prevent incidents.
Ejido Verde is a sustainable pine resin company positioned to become a lead supplier in the 10B USD global pine chemicals industry.
Ejido Verde increases the constrained Mexican pine resin supply with an adaptive reforestation model to restore degraded lands and with strategically guaranteed buyers. As a purpose-driven company, Ejido Verde is equally committed to financial returns, climate-smart solutions, and creating transformative wealth for rural and indigenous communities.
