Although we’re a small company, we’re passionate about nature and committed to doing what we can to help. Over 4,000 native New Zealand species are threatened or at risk of extinction, and they need our protection. By supporting native tree planting, you’re helping create habitats for our endangered wildlife and contributing to ecosystems that are more resilient to threats and diseases.
Since many of our products are designed for outdoor living, we’ve decided to donate a portion of our revenue to non-profit organizations dedicated to preserving New Zealand’s natural environment. These groups work tirelessly to restore forests and provide youth education on environmental issues.
Through our "Greenhouse Grows, Tree Follows" initiative, we pledge to plant a tree for every greenhouse sold. Each tree helps remove tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, playing a vital role in combating climate change.
