TREE PLANTING FOR RESTAURANTS

A visible commitment for restaurants who mean it.

Plant trees monthly through verified reforestation partners. Add a partner badge to your menu, takeout bags, and storefront. Backed by real records — not vague claims.

Why tree planting works for restaurants

  • Diners notice when you mean it

    Industry surveys consistently show 60%+ of diners consider sustainability when choosing where to eat. Specific, documented action moves loyalty; vague "green" claims do not.

  • Visible without overclaiming

    Add the partner badge to your menu, takeout bags, and door. The badge links back to a public record of trees planted on your behalf — diners can verify it in one click.

  • Pairs with the operational work you're already doing

    Tree planting is not a substitute for food-waste programs, sustainable sourcing, or compostable packaging. It's a visible, immediate commitment you can make today while the harder operational changes take months.

  • Tax-deductible as a marketing or charitable expense

    Subscription cost may be deductible as marketing/advertising or charitable contribution depending on your structure. Talk to your accountant; we'll send you receipts.
