Spanish Creek Rainforest Reserve is a diverse 2000-acre second growth seasonally dry rainforest, a private nature reserve in Belize, with 75 acres dedicated to supporting thriving orchards, gardens, bamboos, and palapas. Spanish Creek implements cutting-edge agroforestry techniques so that farm and forestry can exist side by side in a mutually beneficial design, all while collaborating with our local villages to provide jobs, nutrition, and education.
