How WoodYouCare Works
It’s pretty straightforward. First, choose your forest by selecting the type of tree, location, and quantity. Then, WoodYouCare plants the trees with trusted partners on the ground, ensuring local farmers benefit from the work. Finally, you can track your forest’s growth and CO₂ compensation through the WoodTracker, which shows who maintains the plantation and how much impact you’re making over time. It’s transparency and traceability at its best.

Choose to send the gift via email or print a certificate to hand over personally. It’s a thoughtful, eco-friendly gift that keeps on giving, perfect for friends, family, or colleagues who care about the planet.

It’s a win-win for you and the earth.
