What Sets Us Apart

Give a tree gift that will grow for years to come...

U.S. National Forests cover 8.5 percent of the United States, providing roughly 190 million acres of woodlands that serve as the home to many species of animals. These lands belong to all of us and are meant to help preserve the environment for future generations.

Sometimes, areas of U.S. National Forests need our help. When wildfires rip through them, wildlife becomes displaced, and the forests are badly scorched. Replanting trees can help to regrow these areas in order to ensure that they can one day become homes for wildlife again and places where families can explore and discover the beauty of nature.

So how can you help with the important work of reforestation? Trees for a Change is the answer. Trees for a Change is a service that lets you do good while giving gifts to people who matter in your life. We make it possible for you to pay to have a tree or a grove of trees planted in honor of a loved one, friend, customer or employee or in memory of a deceased person or pet. Our tree gifts cost less than the average bouquet of flowers, and they make a big difference for U.S. National Forest lands.

  • Help restore fire devastated forests and make a difference
  • Impress with our beautiful presentation using 100% recycled paper
  • Wow your recipient when they find their tree location, photos, and their name on our tree registry

We've planted 161,803 trees since 2007

Every single tree makes a difference, and we're honored to do this work with your help.

Why Our Trees do
the Most Good

The U.S. Forest Service has identified MILLIONS of acres of National Forest land that are in "desperate need of restoration," areas where fire has destroyed the forest beyond its natural ability to regrow itself. Our trees are always planted in these special areas- the areas that need the most help right now . Forests that used to be thriving and green would be dead and desolate for decades to come without our help. Planting trees with us offers these forests new hope.

Why You Should Trust Us

We are the ONLY tree gift company that does all this:

  • We work with the Forest Service to plant the trees and we know exactly where they are
  • We take photos of our baby trees and post them on the website, then post updated photos of growth through the years
  • We offer a name registry, tree location info and even the option to visit the trees
  • We operate with integrity, transparency and love

We help people and businesses give unique, touching gifts while helping the forests that belong to all of us.
