Lodgepole pine and Douglasfir trees are planted in national forests, in areas destroyed by fire, disease or insects. These trees will help reestablish vital habitat for grizzly bears, bald eagles, and timber wolves, and will contribute to a better environment for everyone.

We will plant as many trees as space and proper tree care allow. Trees will not be planted under the following conditions: New tree would be too close to an intersection. It would eventually create an across-the-intersection vision problem.

BOB: If there is less than one-inch of rainfall per week, thoroughly water new trees and shrubs once a week during the growing season (spring and summer).

A variety of trees are proposed by the landscape architects. They include coast live oak, American yellowwood, Canary Island pines, Italian stone pines, Japanese cedar, and western redbud, among others.

Our trees are moved from the nurseries to the field on a semi continuous basis in India and during the main part of the rainy season, usually beginning in early June, after the rains have become more regular with regard to our farms in Costa Rica.

Over the past 15 years Your True Nature has planted trees through a variety of organizations including Friends of Trees (Portland, OR), Fort Collins ReLeaf (Fort Collins, CO), Global ReLeaf (Washington, DC), TreePeople (Beverly Hills, CA), Trees Water & People (Fort Collins, CO) and others. Currently we are planting in areas of El Salvador with TWP.

It is a sad fact that more young trees are lost through a lack of aftercare than any other reason. Many people, having carefully planted and staked a tree, then leave it to fend for itself expecting it to grow from strength to strength without any further attention. The most important requirement of a newly planted tree is an adequate supply of water. Even trees in large areas of bare soil will probably require frequent watering during the first summer after planting.

Yes, with some limitations. American Forests partners with local, state and federal agencies, as well as conservation organizations. If a major donor specifies an area where a Global ReLeaf Forest doesn't exist, we will work out the most effective arrangement available. In the rare event that a situation cannot be located that meets the standards of American Forests, the donor will be so notified.

Landowners who subport the aims of the Carbon Consultancy and are prepared to commit land for tree planting subject to agreements to protect their future, own the land. The Carbon Consultancy does buy land for plantings on behalf or corporate clients. The aim of the Carbon Consultancy is to reduce atmospheric carbon, not to create a land bank, and it therefore uses partnerships as a cost effective and environmentally sound solution for reforestation.

Yes. Trees may be planted in more than one location. For example you may plant one tree in Alabama and one tree in Texas, however, this will be considered two separate orders and you will be charged accordingly. ($39.95 unframed/59.95 framed plus S&H per order)

About 30 million, three trees for every person in Michigan. However, many millions more are naturally regenerated through forest management.

Forest trees are conventionally planted at 2-3-metre spacing. This may appear close but it helps to draw the trees up, encouraging straight, upright growth rather than squat, branchy trees. It also means that the trees will soon close together, suppressing the weed growth. Newly planted trees cannot be left to their own devices. They need be maintained until properly established. The trees are planted in rows to aid with the maintenance programme.
