Since June is our 1 year anniversary month, we wanted to celebrate and give thanks to our supporters. So we ran a 2 week contest to post a pic with Tree Tribe sunglasses, and we'd select 2 winners to get a free pair of shades, and 500 trees planted in their name.Well here are the 4 winners! We couldn't decide on just 2, we felt these all represented well what Tree Tribe stands for - Nature, Adventure, Community, and Travel. So we just threw our hands up and said lets do 4 winners :)
The core of Tree Tribe's mission is to improve the quality of health and life on the planet, this is why we plant a tree on every sale, and have grand plans for for the future! But why did we choose to plant trees, and why do we love trees so much? Trees are a symbol of health of happiness, check out their powers:
Our mission is to plant more trees on this beautiful planet to help make the world a better place. We've always planted trees on sales, but today we're showing our appreciation for the Earth by planting 2,500 extra trees!
After launching last summer, we hit our first milestone of planting 10,000 trees at the start of 2016, it was awesome! This year, our goal is to 10x that and plant 100,000 trees! Our sunglasses line is growing, and we have some more gear in the works that we'll be launching this summer, stay tuned.
We want to introduce and thank our main tree planting partner, Trees for the Future. We've been working with them for a few months now, and they're awesome!
It's been a super fun and exciting year! We launched earlier this year with a dream of creating a company that helps the Earth by planting trees and creating styles from natural materials. So far we've planted almost 10,000 trees!
We now ship internationally! If you live in Canada, Mexico, Europe, or Australia, no problem, just go through the checkout like usual and we'll take care of the rest. update: We ship to Asia, South America, and Africa as well, but contact us first to make sure USPS will work there - they've been inefficient in some countries.
We're on a quest to plant millions of trees. At the foundation, we plant a tree on every sale. Our primary tree planting partner right now is an organization called Trees for the Future. They're awesome because their system helps both the Earth and people in need.
