Plant at least 100 trees in someone's honor or memory, and have your trees planted on multiple forests throughout the National Forest system where the need is currently the greatest.

Your gift of trees will be used to replant a designated collection of National Forests (as well as select state forests, parks and nature preserves) that are in critical need of reforestation. Now you can create a living memorial that will help us to green up treasured forests from coast to coast. Your tribute trees will create critical wildlife habitat, restore the natural beauty of our National Forest for future generations, and filter our air and water for decades to come.

You or your gift recipient will receive an elegant, sustainably sourced card to commemorate the tree planting. You can customize your card with a personal message and signature. Our cards are printed on high-quality, acid-free, 120 lb. gloss card stock. This means your commemorative keepsake card won't yellow or fade with age. You can also rest assured that the paper is a Green-e Certified product sourced from FSC-Certified forests. We're as thoughtful to the environment as you are to your friends and loved ones.
