How we’re different
We’ll plant a tree for every product sold. Our vision is to support communities and the environment by offering services to the public. For every product sold, we’ll plant a tree. We do this with local help to support local economies and communities. This is in opposition to mass-tourism, which sucks the soul out of destinations. This is also in opposition to greedy international corporations, whose only concern is shareholder profit.
We do this with the help of One Tree Planted. A portion of every purchase goes to a reforestation or urban forestry project.
We hope that, by succeeding, we can have a future that we hope for, not dread.
