Habitat Recovery Project, began as a reforestation/conservation effort based in the foothills of the Pocono Mountains just minutes from the Delaware River, home to fracking contamination, coal mining, and aggressive agricultural deforestation, we had first made it our mission to do our part by cleaning and restoring an abandoned junkyard and planting a small forest in its place to regenerate and preserve wild habitat through phytoremediation. We have since expanded a replicable culture and program that we use to create and inspire community-based land restoration projects across the United States and beyond. This journey has taken us to wildfire-ravaged lands and abandoned gold mines in the Sierra Mountains, to gold mines and deforested areas in Kenya. Fate has brought us to Southwest Louisiana, where the focus is on environmental justice initiatives in the many industrialized coastal communities here.

Gathering to Grow

At Habitat Recovery Project, gathering in community is at the heart of everything we do. We foster spaces where neighbors, grassroots organizers, and frontline communities can share joy, grief, hope, and solidarity over good music and great food. We are rooted in our care for community, living and thriving with our neighbors. We invite you to come around and join our community. Check the calendar to see the next time we are celebrating together.
