If shopping more consciously is top of mind for you, there’s a fashion brand you should know: the Canada-based company tentree. It operates with a straightforward mission: to plant ten trees for every product that is sold. Talk about ambition — the brand has a goal to plant one billion trees, mostly in Madagascar and Indonesia, by 2030. The trees help protect these countries’ native animals and habitats by absorbing CO2, providing natural wood, and generating fertile soils for food growth. In theory, you can shop for any item today and you’ll be contributing to long-term wellness for Mother Nature!
Every item you order also comes with a unique QR “tree code” which tracks exactly where your ten trees are planted — which are done so within six months of purchase. (The trees are not planted if you return an item, however.) So far, the program has been a resounding success; at the time of writing this story, tentree has planted over 61,614,000 trees since the company’s launch a decade ago.
And, as expected from such an earth-minded brand, everything in tentree’s lineup comes from ethical factories and is made from sustainably sourced materials. Apparel is manufactured using natural fibers like organic cotton and hemp, or from recycled polyester, and even the buttons are outfitted from coconut shells (rather than plastic). The brand is also making strides to find better solutions to packaging as well, pledging to do away with all virgin materials from its supply chain by 2023.
To get you acquainted with tentree, the brand is hooking up R29 readers with the exclusive code REFINERY15 for 15% off sitewide through 1/31/2022 (that’s right, into the new year!).
