Artisan Demonstration: Learn from the local women’s cooperative that upcycle plastic bags into eco-mochilas (tote bags) and other fashionable items that are a source of alternative income. The bags also help fund Proyecto Tití conservation initiatives, while additionally cleaning up local villages of plastic trash.

Planting Activity: Help a local farmer plant some of the tamarin’s favorite plants.
Please note: Guests must be at least 8 years old to participate in the forest hike. Children aged 5-7 can do a perimeter walk and participate in other activities, but they will not likely see any tamarins.
