Tree Planting
Most of the trees are planted in Madagascar.
Contrary to popular belief most of Madagascar has been deforested, less than 10% of the forests remain. It is in desperate need of reforestation to prevent enviromental collapse and to be able to feed the people of the island nation. See more about this on Our Mission page.
We also plant a small amount in our home town of Queenstown, New Zealand. This reforestation in New Zealand is over and above our 1 Card = 1 Tree commitment.
When we first started we also planted 2500 trees in Ethiopia, but currently we mainly plant trees in Madagascar with a little extra in New Zealand. We may look to plant trees in other developing countries in the near future.
In Madagascar 75% of the species planted are a variety of coastal mangroves at various loactions along the coast, and 25% are a variety of dry deciduous species planted inland.
In Tāhuna, Aotearoa (Queenstown, New Zealand) the species planted are a wide variety of native New Zealand trees and shrubs that are well suited to the specifc areas they are planted.
All species that we plant are native to their location they are planted, we do not fund the planting of any species that are not naturally native to the specific area they are planted in.
We do the tree planting in developing countries like Madagascar that badly need it and have suffered serious deforestation.
The tree planting is done by employing the local people who are stuck in extreme poverty. They are paid a fair living wage to facilitate the tree planting which helps lift them out of poor living conditions and break the intergenerational cycle of extreme poverty. In some cases it saves lives.
Even though the people are paid a fair living wage that transforms their lives, the cost of that labour is still relatively low, and the planting is done on such scale that the unit cost of planting a tree is quite low.
It is still a financial challenge to plant 1 tree very every single product, especially a low value item like a greeting card. We have been able to achieve this by having a very simple and lean distribution chain so fewer sake holders, like distributers, taking a share of the revenue in the path to market and the end consumer.
We still struggle with profit margins though and have to very closely watch our finances.
But, having a positive impact on the world environmentally and social are what Sophie and I foundered our business on, so we are determined to stick to planting trees where they are needed most and alleviating extreme poverty.
You can see more about how we plant trees here on Our Mission page.
We (Soph & Pete) have been there to Madagascar and seen it with our own eyes. We have gone out on planting days with the local Malagasy people and planted some of the trees ourselves.
We spent 2 weeks there seeing the different types of planting that is happening, learning about the local eco-systems, the processes of the planting and how it all works together to restore those natural environments in a holistic way for the forest, the wildlife and the people who rely on it for survival.
Our partner charity also has employees dedicated to counting and validating the numbers of trees that are planted and checking the suvival rates.
All the trees that are planted are also "grown". This means they are nursed and protected to maturity until they can survive on there own and self seed new trees. The mature forests are also continuely protected from threats like poachers and fire.
We are in constant contact with our parter reforestation charity about progress and developments.
With anything like this that is happening so far away there is an element of trust. When we were there in Madagascar we were so impressed with the holistic approach, methods and the sincere motivations of the people involved that we are very confident that things are continuing to happen as communicated.
Below is a photo of Soph in Mahajunga at a Nursery with some of the reforestation employees.
Each mangrove tree we plant sequesters an average of 3.4 kg of carbon per year.
This is the equivilant of 12.3 kg of CO2 per year per tree. Mangroves make up 75% of the species that we plant and have some of the highest carbon sequestration rates of any tree species in the world.
We do not yet have the sequestration data on the other species that make up the remaining 25% of the species that we plant but we are working on that.
Yes. All species that we plant are native to their location they are planted.
We do not fund the planting of any species that are not naturally native to the specific area they planted, no matter what country we are planting in.
E.g: in Madagascar, we will only plant trees that are native to Madagascar, and that naturally occur in that specific part of Madagascar that we are planting in.
No, we do not.
We have a limited understanding of the many varying eco-systems of the world but we understand enough to know that some eco-systems are extremely sensitive to foreign species. We allow shipping of our porducts all over the world so we do not want to enable an invasive foreign species to damage existing sensitive eco-systems.
In New Zealand for example not every tree and plant is better than no tree or plant. There are some foreign species, like exotic wilding conifers, that are causing massive environment degradation to native forests and native wildlife habitat.
So that is why we have not offered seeds so far.
