DescTropical 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. By the end of 2013 about 40 farms were participating. The nursery produced about 30,000 tree seedlings of 11 local-ecotype native species and various exotic (non-invasive) orchard species, including coffee, avocado, cacao, and citrus. 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, made 27 loans, amounting to approximately $13,970, in exchange for easements over about 92 acres. We established the regions first community-owned nature reserve, a 44.3-acre property that protects an important local water supply. We installed our second Parcela Agro-Ecolgica, a sophisticated, polyculture system that increases soil fertility on about one acre, in exchange for additional conservation easements. This system is designed to help our poorest farmers. Our Rising Forests Coffee program, which buys small-holder native-shade coffee, is protecting about 20 acres of forest; in 2013, Rising Forests paid our farmers about twice the usual Fair Trade rate.Desc

DescDC-Area Wild Plant Nursery:Propagation from the wild of about 300 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 2013, about 13,000 native trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants were distributed from the nursery to local natural areas.Desc

DescDC-Area Meadow Restoration:Collaboration with the Bureau of Land Management, the Fish and Wildlife Service, the National Park Service, and Fairfax County, Virginia, on native-meadow restoration. At the BLMs Meadowood Recreation Area, we replanted 4.25 acres of a 17-acre field mostly dominated by exotic fescue grass. We put in about 20 species of native, local-ecotype meadow species. We also developed a scythe-based hand-mowing technique for managing Chinese lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata), a serious pest plant on this site. At the FWSs Occoquan Bay National Wildlife Refuge, we subjected one acre of our 12.5-acre restoration site to an experimental hand-mowing regimen, and demonstrated an increase in native forb abundance, at the expense of the eastern gamagrass (Trypsacum dactyloides) monoculture that covers most of the site. At the Park Services Fort Dupont Park in DC, we supplied plants and volunteers for a small meadow planting at the Historic Earthworks. We also installed small meadow plantings in three Fairfax County parks: Rutherford, Waples Mill, and the Marie Butler Leven Preserve.Desc

Form And Line ReferencePart I - Additional Supplemental InformationFormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationOperation 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. By the end of 2013 about 40 farms were participating. The nursery produced about 30,000 tree seedlings of 11 local-ecotype native species and various exotic (non-invasive) orchard species, including coffee, avocado, cacao, and citrus. 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, made 27 loans, amounting to approximately $13,970, in exchange for easements over about 92 acres. We established the regions first community-owned nature reserve, a 44.3-acre property that protects an important local water supply. We installed our second Parcela Agro-Ecolgica, a sophisticated, polyculture system that increases soil fertility on about one acre, in exchange for additional conservation easements. This system is designed to help our poorest farmers. Our Rising Forests Coffee program, which buys small-holder native-shade coffee, is protecting about 20 acres of forest; in 2013, Rising Forests paid our farmers about twice the usual Fair Trade rate.ExplanationTxt

Form 990, Part III, Line 4d: Other Program Services DescriptionOTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: DC-Area Meadow Restoration:Collaboration with the Bureau of Land Management, the Fish and Wildlife Service, the National Park Service, and Fairfax County, Virginia, on native-meadow restoration. At the BLMs Meadowood Recreation Area, we replanted 4.25 acres of a 17-acre field mostly dominated by exotic fescue grass. We put in about 20 species of native, local-ecotype meadow species. We also developed a scythe-based hand-mowing technique for managing Chinese lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata), a serious pest plant on this site. At the FWSs Occoquan Bay National Wildlife Refuge, we subjected one acre of our 12.5-acre restoration site to an experimental hand-mowing regimen, and demonstrated an increase in native forb abundance, at the expense of the eastern gamagrass (Trypsacum dactyloides) monoculture that covers most of the site. At the Park Services Fort Dupont Park in DC, we supplied plants and volunteers for a small meadow planting at the Historic Earthworks. We also installed small meadow plantings in three Fairfax County parks: Rutherford, Waples Mill, and the Marie Butler Leven Preserve. 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. By the end of 2013 about 40 farms were participating. The nursery produced about 30,000 tree seedlings of 11 local-ecotype native species and various exotic (non-invasive) orchard species, including coffee, avocado, cacao, and citrus.

This system is designed to help our poorest farmers. Our Rising Forests Coffee program, which buys small-holder native-shade coffee, is protecting about 20 acres of forest; in 2013, Rising Forests paid our farmers about twice the usual Fair Trade rate. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 6: Meditation: The practice of traditional Buddhist meditation in a nondenominational format, in the Washington, DC, area. During 2013, sessions were generally conducted once a week. About 60 people attended at least one sitting; there were about 15 regular attendees. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 7: Non-Buffer Forest Restoration:On-going work at the 20-acre Marie Butler Leven Preserve in Fairfax County, Virginia. During 2013, we suppressed invasive alien vegetation over about half an acre of the parks 17-acre forest, bringing the total area cleared of invasives to about 6.5 acres. We also planted a grove of possibly blight-resistant American chestnut (Castanea dentata), intermingled with butternut (Juglans cinerea), another uncommon tree. (Both species were propagated by us from wild-collected seed.) And we established a small meadow planting on the Preserves main lawn.

Statement on the Value of In-Kind DonationsDuring 2013, volunteers contributed approximately 11,000 hours of service to our Wild Plant Nursery and DC-area ecological restoration sites. We value this effort at $24.64 per hour, which is the 2012 Virginia Average Hourly Value of Volunteer Time, set by the Virginia Department of Social Services (2012 is the most recent year for which a value was available). The total value of our 2013 volunteer effort was therefore $271,040.During 2013, Fairfax County, Virginia, regraded 4,000 square feet of container yard at our Wild Plant Nursery and removed debris produced by our on-going nursery upgrade. We value Fairfax Countys contribution at $2,000
