| Desc | DC-Area Wild Plant Nursery:Propagation from the wild of about 320 plant species native to the greater Washington, DC, region for use in local ecological restoration projects. All stock is local ecotype (propagated directly from local wild native-plant populations). Our plants are used in our own projects and in those of other nonprofits, friends of groups, individual restorationists, and government agencies managing local parkland. During 2014, over 12,000 native trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants were distributed from the nursery to local natural areas. | Desc |

| Desc | Tropical Agroforestry: Operation of a community tree nursery and associated forest-conservation programs on the Dominican side of a portion of the Dominican Republic Haiti border, to slow deforestation and help impoverished farmers increase their incomes. During 2014, about 40 farms participated. The nursery produced about 25,000 orchard, timber, and local-ecotype native tree seedlings; 11 native species were represented, all of them probably in decline in the wild. Our Forest Credit program, in which our local independent partner organization makes low-cost credit available to small-holder farmers in exchange for forest conservation easements, lent $19,750 to 40 farms, in exchange for easements over about 150 acres of forest. Our Parcelas Sembradas program pays a small annual stipend to eight of our farms for maintaining and monitoring experimental forest plantings; during 2014, the program paid out a total of $1,078. Two of our poorest farms are benefitting from our Parcela Agro-Ecolgica, a sophisticated polyculture system designed to increase soil fertility on about one acre, in exchange for additional conservation easements. Our Rising Forests Coffee program, which buys small-holder native-shade coffee, is protecting about 20 acres of forest; in 2014, Rising Forests paid our farmers about twice the usual Fair Trade rate. Our 44.3-acre nature reserve, the regions only community-owned nature reserve, is protecting the headwaters of a village water supply. | Desc |

During 2014, we suppressed invasive alien vegetation in several parts of the parks 17-acre forest. We cleared invasive vine curtains, removed invasive groundlayer, cut invasive woody understory, and downed invasive tree species. All together, total area cleared of invasives now probably amounts to about 6.5 acres. We also began reestablishing several species of native grass along a section of forest edge, with stock grown at our Wild Plant Nursery. | Desc |

| Form 990, Part III, Line 4d: Other Program Services Description | OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: DC-Area Meadow Restoration:On-going work at the Occoquan Bay National Wildlife Refuge in Prince William County, Virginia, and at two Fairfax County, Virginia, parks to establish or rehabilitate meadows. On our 12.5-acre site at Occoquan Bay, we conducted a four-month test of our Green Reaping meadow management technique, in which selective hand-mowing with scythes is intended to increase native forb abundance. At a 0.65-acre meadow in Fairfax Countys Rutherford Park, we hand-pulled invasive alien plants and planted various native grasses and forbs. And at Huntley Meadows Park, also in Fairfax County, we supplied about 1,200 local-ecotype native plants and volunteers for a wet-meadow restoration project. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 5: Tropical Agroforestry: Operation of a community tree nursery and associated forest-conservation programs on the Dominican side of a portion of the Dominican Republic Haiti border, to slow deforestation and help impoverished farmers increase their incomes. During 2014, about 40 farms participated. The nursery produced about 25,000 orchard, timber, and local-ecotype native tree seedlings; 11 native species were represented, all of them probably in decline in the wild. Our Forest Credit program, in which our local independent partner organization makes low-cost credit available to small-holder farmers in exchange for forest conservation easements, lent $19,750 to 40 farms, in exchange for easements over about 150 acres of forest. Our Parcelas Sembradas program pays a small annual stipend to eight of our farms for maintaining and monitoring experimental forest plantings; during 2014, the program paid out a total of $1,078. Two of our poorest farms are benefitting from our Parcela Agro-Ecolgica, a sophisticated polyculture system designed to increase soil fertility on about one acre, in exchange for additional conservation easements. Our Rising Forests Coffee program, which buys small-holder native-shade coffee, is protecting about 20 acres of forest; in 2014, Rising Forests paid our farmers about twice the usual Fair Trade rate. Our 44.3-acre nature reserve, the regions only community-owned nature reserve, is protecting the headwaters of a village water supply. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 6: DC-Area Meditation: The practice of traditional Buddhist meditation in a nondenominational format, in the Washington, DC, area. During 2014, sessions were generally conducted once a week. Some 35-40 people attended at least one sitting; there were about 15 regular attendees. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 7: DC-Area Forest Restoration Outside Stream Buffers:On-going work at the 20-acre Marie Butler Leven Preserve in Fairfax County, Virginia. During 2014, we suppressed invasive alien vegetation in several parts of the parks 17-acre forest. We cleared invasive vine curtains, removed invasive groundlayer, cut invasive woody understory, and downed invasive tree species. All together, total area cleared of invasives now probably amounts to about 6.5 acres. We also began reestablishing several species of native grass along a section of forest edge, with stock grown at our Wild Plant Nursery. |
