The flames left deep scars in the heart of the Santo Pietro wood, an invaluable natural heritage. The Mediterranean scrub, once luxuriant, has been reduced to ash, endangering the survival of unique species such as the Sicilian red fox.
Faced with this disaster, Red Fox's Club was born, a Sicilian Whiskey initiative aimed at bringing life back to the devastated woods. Our club, inspired by the tenacity of the red fox, is committed to protecting biodiversity and reforesting areas affected by fires.
How? Every year, we collect thousands of oak acorns in areas affected by fires. These little gems of nature carry within them the hope of a rebirth. The collected acorns are then scattered throughout Sicily, giving life to new wooded areas.
Why the oak? Because it is a symbol of strength and resilience, capable of resisting even the most devastating fires. Its deep roots stabilize the soil, preventing the risk of erosion and landslides. In addition, oak is able to absorb large quantities of carbon dioxide, helping to mitigate the effects of climate change.
By joining forces, we can turn a tragedy into an opportunity.
Take part in the Red Fox's Club and help recreate a green future for Sicily. Together, we can bring life back to our forests and protect biodiversity for future generations.
