about us

Grow-Trees.com is a Social Enterprise, a business model that prioritizes positive social and environmental impact alongside financial sustainability. We reinvest our surplus for the capacity building and community-improvement initiatives apart from tree plantation activities. The founders have supported it with their own funds when required and do not take any fees, charges, remuneration, dividends, etc from the company; the founders also allow the use of their office for no rental charge.

Grow-Trees.com collaborates with execution partners to establish nurseries and nurture local tree species, and select appropriate planting sites in consultation with local communities. These projects focus on rural employment and biodiversity preservation, ensuring positive long-term impacts.
