My Timeline

The important moments in your tree's life.

Seed

It all starts with a tiny seed, nice and warm in the soil.

Nursery

Your seedling is big enough to be welcomed into one of our nurseries, along with many others.

Planted

We’re here! Your tree has reached its new home: it’s been planted by a smallholder, who’ll take care of it for years to come.

Strike a pose! Now that it’s big enough, here’s a photo of your tree!

Curiosity about me

The important moments in your tree's life.

Let's start with introductions

The Ash is part of the Oleaceae family: this tree can grow up to 40-45 meters tall, and its trunk can grow up to 1,5 meters in diameter. This tree typically grows near rivers or humid, swampy areas. Its leaves gather in groups of 7-13 and are bright green.

Meaning

Maturity

Its grey bark is smooth at first, but as time goes by it starts to crack, thus changing the tree's looks as it matures.

How much CO2 I’ll absorb

My estimated CO2 absorption capacity is based on the first 10 years of my life*

Current absorption

- 80 kg

2020

0 kg

2030

-200 kg

* The tree will continue to absorb CO2 even after the tenth year. Therefore this is a prudent estimate.

How I am useful to local communities

My benefits

60%

Food Security

The trees will bear fruits, some that will be edible immediately and others that can become edible through processing, ensuring food resources over time.

60%

Economic development

The trees' fruits and the products derived from their transformation can be traded in local networks, offering income opportunities.

40%

CO₂ Absorption

During its life cycle, each tree will offset CO₂. The trees that you plant can offset your emissions.

40%

Environmental protection

The trees are planted in agroforestry systems that favor the virtuous interaction between the different species and their positive impact on the environment and on the land.
