Roots Run Deep: The Tree Planting Club


A proud moment for us is being part of our suppliers Tree Planting Club, an initiative embedded in the lush landscapes of Malawi.

Here's the story behind the movement:

Why?


Our supplier embraces its responsibility to the environment, the people, and the communities it works with. Rapid population growth, deforestation, and the impacts of climate change are real, and our supplier stands as a beacon of change.

How?


1. Diverse Trees for a Sustainable Future: Scientists and universities collaborated to select a range of economically viable trees for Malawi, from healthy fruit trees to fast-yielding Eucalyptus.

2. Nurturing Growth: Our supplier grows different tree types in its own nurseries, providing small farmers with access to a diversified income.

3. Empowering Farmers: Info events and training sessions equip farmers with the knowledge to plant, harvest, and market these trees. Farmers buy trees at subsidized prices, fostering a sense of ownership.
