Yarang Mamin

Overview

The Yarang are a group of 65 women from the Ikpeng people who collect native seeds in the Indigenous Territory of Xingu (Brazil). Mothers, daughters, grandmothers, and granddaughters who together, over the course of a decade, have collected 3.2 tons of forest seeds. This little ants' work made it possible to plant about 1 million trees in degraded areas of the Xingu and Araguaia river basins. These are the seeds that will form the forests of the future.
