Our Story
Our Story
BioTara was born from concerns over the growing disconnects on earth. Historically, small communities have been shut out from the global marketplace. Not by design, but by not appropriately valuing the nature-positive products of our natural ecosystems. By not providing appropriate levels of access to capital and technology for the development of community-owned ventures. And finally, by not appreciating the intimate link between products being consumed and the forest-based communities where they originate. This lack of access to capital, technology and markets has, directly and indirectly, led to forest loss, poverty, and thus increased vulnerability of the most valuable forest stewards of our planet.
Based on our 50+ years of combined experience in NGO's and the private sector, BioTara knows what is needed and seeks to bridge this market failure. We will provide forest steward communities with access to Capital, Technology, and Markets to build bio-economy ventures via a franchise model. This enables them to be co-owners, earning an income from their wild plantations while protecting their forests and lifestyle.
