Tuburan Cacao Corridor: Restoring Land, Livelihoods, and Local Resilience
White Oleander Farm Collective coordinates smallholder farmers into regenerative supply corridors. We organize farmers into 10-person clusters, deploy low-cost soil sensors (Gomboc), and measure supply reliability through our FFR score (94% proven). Every harvest earns a Digital Twin – cryptographic proof that the land healed and the farmer was paid a dignity premium. We start with coconut byproducts for industrial activated carbon, then scale horizontally into cacao. Our farmers capture a ₱10/kg premium. We are farmer-led, backed by Western Union Foundation, and validated by Cebu Technological University.
Project story
We are working with smallholder cacao farmers in Tuburan, Cebu to restore productivity, improve soil health, and strengthen community resilience. Funding will support Roots & Rise farmer training, Gomboc Sentinel ecological monitoring, biological baseline collection, and post-harvest improvements. Over the next 12 months, we aim to establish a verifiable cacao corridor that improves farmer livelihoods while generating measurable environmental data from the landscape.
