The important moments in your tree's life.
It all starts with a tiny seed, nice and warm in the soil.
Your seedling is big enough to be welcomed into one of our nurseries, along with many others.
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!

The important moments in your tree's life.
A large canopy is typical of the rain tree. Its symmetrical, umbrella-shaped crown may measure up to 30 metres across. In height, the rain tree easily tops the 20-metre mark and this brief description gives an idea of how much shade it may offer to anyone taking refuge under it.
Its wide canopy bids birds and insects welcome. And there’s more. The shade it projects offers fresh relief at the times of day when the sun is at its most powerful.

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

Its leaves, roots, bark and/or fruits are used in traditional medicine.

Its fruits, seeds and/or leaves are used as food in the farmers' families or are sold on local markets.
The trees will bear fruits, some that will be edible immediately and others that can become edible through processing, ensuring food resources over time.
The trees' fruits and the products derived from their transformation can be traded in local networks, offering income opportunities.
During its life cycle, each tree will absorb CO₂. The trees you plant can offset your emissions.
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.
