In 1993, the MCL acquired an adjacent farm to the BEN with the goal to build an Education Center. Three years later, thanks to donations from international organizations and individuals, we were able to construct modest buildings to carry out education and reforestation activities.
Finca Steller Education Center, located in La Tigra de San Carlos, has a classroom, a kid's house, and a tree nursery for the production of native tree species. In addition, we maintain trails available for hiking through primary and secondary forest as well as regenerating areas.
Since a great portion of the farm was pasture area, we established experimental plots for habitat restoration, experiments with commercial plantations, and a small arboretum. We have also established a permanent forest plot for research.
