Planting trees
For each of our products we have a tree planted. Each month an amount will be given to OneTreePlanted and other tree planting partners we have. The tree is usually planted where it is most needed. Therefore, the buyer's tree is planted at the location where OneTreePlanted or another tree planting partner organizes their next tree planting campaign.
