Trees are natures super heroes. Not only are they enchantingly beautiful, they nourish and sustain communities, protect wildlife and promote biodiversity. And planting trees is a simple act that will generate countless benefits for all life on earth.

Across our projects, we plant a wide mix of diverse trees from fruit trees like mango to native species at risk of going extinct like the African cherry.
We always ensure that the trees we plant are well suited to a specific environment and benefit the local community.
-
Our local team and community partners decide what trees to plant based on their suitability to the local environment. This ensures that landscapes and communities reap the most benefits from trees planted.

Your trees will be planted where the need is greatest in forests, woodlands and farms across our projects, restoring damaged ecosystems and creating healthy and productive landscapes that nourish and sustain communities.

From seed to maturity, trees grow at different rates. Trees in warmer climates will grow faster than a tree here in the UK. Species like African cherry can reach 14m in 18 years .

“A man who plants a tree is doing a very wonderful thing. He is setting in motion an organism which may far outlive him or his children, and year by year that tree is storing up energy and power, working with precision like a factory, but far superior to any factory of man.”
