Welcome to Savage Lands
We help finance reforestation and the purchase of land
TO EXTEND GREEN AREAS AND CREATE SANCTUARY ZONES.
THIS ALLOWS FOR THE WILDERNESS TO EXIST
IN PEACE AND HARMONY WITH HUMAN SETTLEMENTS.
YOU CAN HELP!
The effective protection of nature depends on the space it is given. It’s essential to sanctuarize lands in order to preserve them and make them untouchable.
We organize initiatives with strong narrative involving brands, personalities and individuals in the financing of reforestation in Costa Rica.
Coming from the world of music, entertainment and action sports, we benefit from a solid active background and continuous, direct contact with the public.

Our Initiatives
DUNABLE GUITARS
A famous Californian Luthier, Sacha Dunable, has made a unique boutique guitar from a naturally fallen Guanacaste tree. This wood was offered by Lola’s owner “Donato” in Avellanas, and prepared by Sergio.
This guitar will be played by famous metal bands on stage… then donated through a raffle, in order to finance reforestation and the creation of green zones in Costa Rica.
SUPERBAND
A group of world-renowned artists from different bands will join forces to embody this project. To create unique musical composition.
All proceeds of the sale of this piece of music will go directly towards reforestation and the purchase of lands.
A music festival could also be a good opportunity to raise money and attention in Costa rica…
V.I.P. WITH A MISSION
Use famous names and personalities in order to allow us to get faster results. Because this is URGENT ! First ones to say yes were musicians from the international metal scene.
Now the initiated movement is beeing watched and other artists and organizations are joining us because they want to take action !
SEMINARS
Costa Rica is a symbol. It allows us to speak to the widest audience. The local laws also facilitate many of our actions that can then become successful and help motivate people.
What we will initiate here will inspire worldwide !
Lost causes are hard to support and it is always easier to gather more people when results are measurable ! This is why we are so motivated !
Our goals
To create an exemplary green zone. To set a duplicable standard. To show, as Costa Rica has done, that preservation does not hinder a virtuous and flourishing economy.
Deadline
Our experience has taught us that our goals are attainable. Results will be apparent quickly. The first stage- reforestation and land purchase- is estimated to take only 1 to 3 years.
Why Costa Rica?
BECAUSE LOCAL LEGISLATION FAVORS OUR ACTION.
BECAUSE PRESERVATION IS STILL POSSIBLE WITHOUT BATTLING LARGE FINANCIAL GROUPS.
BECAUSE COSTA RICA IS AN EMBLEMATIC PLACE AND A SOURCE OF INSPIRATION FOR MANY.
