Agradecimiento a los Propietarios
LIFE+PINZON would like to make a special mention of the landowners who are important for the Gran Canaria Blue Chaffinch, for selflessly authorizing us to plant on their plots located in the surroundings of the Gran Canaria Summit. To date, the private land where reforestation has been carried out or is to be carried out covers more than 35 hectares.
