Mountain Partnership

Last Forest & Mountain Partnership

Since April 2021, Last Forest has been a proud member of the Mountain Partnership under the FAO, dedicated to supporting mountain communities in the Nilgiris.

As part of this initiative, Last Forest created specialized labels for its lip balms and honey, highlighting the region’s rich traditions, biodiversity, and sustainable practices. Additionally, a grant from the Mountain Partnership has enabled key projects, including:

  • Digital marketing to expand reach
  • Sourcing coffee & beeswax balms from the Nilgiris
  • Implementing PGS Wild in the Pillur region for sustainable certification
  • Organizing exhibitions to showcase local craftsmanship

Through these efforts, Last Forest continues to empower Nilgiris communities while preserving their unique environment.
