opportunities for income and businesses.
TREES also works with farmers, communities, governments, and institutional partners to scale landscape restoration and develop high-integrity carbon projects that deliver measurable Climate, Community, and Biodiversity (CCB) benefits. Our carbon work is designed in alignment with Verra standards, including planned CCB and Abacus labels.
Together, TREES and partner farmers have restored more than 100,000 acres of land and improved access to food for more than 475,000 people.
Recognized as a UN World Restoration Flagship, TREES is home to one of the world’s most promising large-scale ecosystem restoration efforts and is helping demonstrate what becomes possible when farmers, nature, and enterprise thrive together.
