La Amistad Agroforestry Plot
Talamanca, Limón, Costa Rica. An agroforestry plot the project owns, planted with mixed native hardwood and fruit trees.
This plot is not where Carbonhood's retired credits come from.
Credits are bought and cancelled on third-party registries — globally verified projects sourced live from the Carbonmark marketplace (Kenya, Peru, Brazil, and wherever else supply is listed), each with a public registry record on the dashboard. The figures on this page are a modelled estimate of what these trees sequester. They are not verified by anyone, they are never added to the retirement total, and the underlying survey data is still a placeholder pending a ground survey.

Species mix
Why the planting is mixed rather than a monoculture.

Mixed planting on purpose: hardwoods hold carbon for decades while the fruit and shade crops keep the plot economically alive for its farmers.
Methodology. Estimated using a conservative 8.5 tCO2e/ha/yr factor for mixed tropical agroforestry, applied to surveyed plot area. Not yet third-party verified — figures are indicative and pending registry-grade measurement.
