Timberland and the Smallholder Farmers Alliance Sow Cotton Seeds and Hope for Haitian Farmers
I hadn’t been to Haiti since June 2010, six months after the 7.0 magnitude earthquake that decimated much of the island. At that time, there were still many ruins of collapsed buildings, piles of rubble along the roadsides, and thousands of people living in makeshift tent camps. This August, I returned to Haiti and saw a very different country.

Employees and their guests came out in record numbers with over 300 in attendance.
