Tree-Planting for companies: How Tree-Nation supports your climate strategy

Many companies exploring sustainability and CO₂ responsibility ask us similar questions when evaluating tree-planting initiatives. This article explains how Tree-Nation works with businesses, what you can expect in terms of impact, transparency, and reporting, and how to get started.

🌍 What kind of projects can you support?

Tree-Nation supports verified reforestation, agroforestry, and ecosystem restoration projects worldwide, designed to deliver both environmental and long-term impact:

Reforestation (native forests, mangroves, degraded land restoration)
Agroforestry (trees combined with crops for long-term livelihoods)
Ecosystem restoration (projects focused on biodiversity and landscape recovery)

Each project is selected and structured to ensure measurable environmental impact, transparency, and long-term viability.

You can browse all our active projects, compare prices, locations, and impact areas, and choose what aligns best with your values: 🔍 Browse affiliated projects

Each project page clearly explains:

Location and local context
Environmental and social benefits
Field updates
Tree species and cost per tree

📊 Tracking, reporting & transparency

Every company on Tree-Nation receives its own digital forest, which acts as a live impact dashboard.

Through your forest, you can:

Track trees planted and estimated CO₂ capture over time.
Access project updates, field reports, and on-the-ground progress.
Share your impact transparently with customers and stakeholders

This ensures your climate contribution is visible, traceable, and continuously updated.

🪙 Pricing & Costs

One of the most common questions we receive is: How much does it cost?

Tree-Nation operates on a simple and transparent pricing model:

You pay per tree planted or according to your plan
There are no setup fees, no account creation fees, and no hidden administration costs
For integrations and automations, we use species packages. During the setup of your integration, you select a species package and you plant in a wide variety of projects with a variety of species. Species packages start from €0,35/tree.

It is strictly pay-per-transaction. What you see is what you get.

The price per tree depends on the project and species you select. Tree prices currently range from €0.35 to €15 per tree.

To understand how pricing is defined and how species packages work, please see more details here.

🔁 One-time, annual, or triggered planting action

Tree-Nation is flexible and adapts to different business models. Companies commonly choose:

Annual contributions (based on yearly emissions or targets)
Monthly or quarterly planting habits
Activity-linked planting actions, such as:
- Per booking, order, or transaction
- Per ton of emissions measured
- Per milestone or campaign

You can plant:

Manually (ideal for annual or periodic actions)
Automatically (via integrations or API, depending on your setup)

Once you actively plant trees, Tree-Nation helps you communicate responsibly and transparently, avoiding greenwashing.

You can:

Share your forest or impact page publicly

FAQ

🙋 Is this in-person volunteering?

No. Tree-Nation does not organize on-site, physical tree-planting days or team-building activities for employees. What we do offer is a way to engage your team remotely: gifting each employee a tree. They get an individual certificate, the planting location, the tree species, and project details, so your team feels the impact without traveling to a project site.
