Projects Supported By Highland Fayre
Rimba Raya
Rimba Raya protects over 640 square kilometers of High Conservation Value tropical peat forest, with over 350 million tonnes of carbon stored in their peat domes. The measurable contribution to emission avoidance is the equivalent of removing one million cars from the world’s highways every year for the next 30 years! The Rimba Raya Biodiversity Reserve project supports.
Keo Seima Wildlife Sanctuary
The largest threat driving deforestation in Cambodia is land clearance. KSWS sits at a deforestation frontier with areas of nearby protected and unprotected land extensively cleared over the last decade. The Wildlife Sanctuary is home to over 1000 species, including more than 85 globally threatened species. The project’s biodiversity monitoring is world class, with long term species population monitoring available for 11 key species.
Mangrove Planting in Madagascar
The Madagascar project that we support started in 2007. The project has already planted over 300 million trees and created over 3 million workdays. Mangroves are an excellent forest type for restoration it not only stores more carbon than traditional forests, it also provides multiple benefits to coastal communities like storm protection, water filtration and livelihood generation.

Aid For Ukraine
Tayside and Strathearn Help for Ukraine is a charity that has been providing humanitarian aid to Ukraine since the start of the war. The charity has sent over 50 lorries of aid to Ukraine, including food, water, medical supplies, and clothing. Highland Fayre Ltd has donated food and packaging to the charity, which has helped to make the aid shipments possible. We continue to support such a vital service.
Mangrove Plantations
Healthy and thriving mangroves are linked with bountiful coastal communities, since mangrove health is closely tied with coastal socio economic stability. Eden Restoration is using a unique methodology of ‘employ to plant’ in order to target both of these problems. To involve locals within the core project execution and provide fair employment to local people so that they may grow, plant, and guard to maturity native species forest on a massive scale.
Forest Regeneration
With every sustainable hamper purchased we will plant a tree. The largest threat driving deforestation in Cambodia is land clearance for both large and small scale agriculture. KSWS sits at a deforestation frontier with areas of nearby protected and unprotected land extensively cleared over the last decade. There is also a great deal of illegal wildlife poaching and illegal logging of rare tree species. This project helps ensure the long term protection of the project.
Orangutan Wildlife Reserve
The Rimba Raya Biodiversity Reserve collaborates closely with the Orangutan Foundation International (OFI) to actively conserve these charismatic great apes. Palm oil is the leading cause of orangutan extinction, where it is estimated that every year 1,000 5,000 orangutans are killed by palm oil concessions. The Reserve is now a critical buffer zone between palm oil and one of the last populations of wild orangutans on Earth.
