 What RFI means to you

To the CARETAKERS of the EARTH, here is a wonderful way in which you can  help restore a vital natural resource honoring the land as well as  future generations, giving back to the earth rather than  being a consumer. 

THINK ABOUT IT  -  every dollar you give will go the the purchase of redwood trees or redwood forest land to be managed for the benefit of future generations.  WE HAVE NO ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS.

Your membership and donation can make a difference.  Go to Membership page to join. 

Only 4% of these Ancient  Giant Redwoods remain in our forests.  See California's Disappearing Giant Redwoods.
