Homes For Hornbills

When humans plant one tree, we grow one tree. When we protect one hornbill, we grow a whole forest

Hornbills are vital to the ecosystems of the forests they inhabit, earning them the title “farmers of the forest.” These migratory birds play a crucial role in dispersing seeds across different areas, promoting plant reproduction, and supporting the biodiversity and health of

the forest.

Our Mission

At Homes for Hornbills, our mission is to protect, restore, and grow hornbill populations by constructing sustainable habitats through artificial nests. We are dedicated to enhancing forest biodiversity, raising awareness about the critical role hornbills play in our ecosystems, and partnering with local communities to preserve forests and secure a future for these endangered birds.

Creating Homes for Hornbills

With artificial nests, Hornbills don’t have to rely on scarce natural tree cavities in order to nest. As a result, hornbill populations can increase through the use of safe, durable, and long-lasting artificial nests.

Raising Awareness

We educate students and communities about the importance of hornbills in maintaining the health of Thailand’s forests. Through presentations and hands-on activities, we inspire people to take action on saving hornbills.

Building A Community

Through working closely with local students and communities, we have successfully installed artificial nests throughout Yao Noi Island. With the help of the community, we can monitor hornbills and continue to develop future artificial bird nests.

Founder's story

"I learned that providing artificial nests is a solution to support their survival. This experience inspired me to establish Homes for Hornbills, dedicated to conserving these endangered birds and protecting the ecosystems they sustain."
