The expected gross gain corresponds to the amount (in the selected currency) that we will pay you back when your trees have been cut. It is based on the natural growth rate of a tree, which is estimated at around 2% per year.

### Checker tree
A symbol of rarity, authenticity, and wild beauty, the Checker tree is one of the most discreet and precious trees in our forests, whose presence signals an ancient and well-preserved ecosystem. It is a truly unique gift for a nature lover, or to mark an occasion that calls for something genuinely out of the ordinary.
Its small white spring flowers are a valued nectar source for pollinators, and its orange autumn berries feed many frugivorous bird species and small mammals. Its presence in a woodland is often the most reliable indicator of an ancient forest with exceptional biodiversity.
The Checker tree (Sorbus torminalis) is a deciduous tree in the rose family, with lobed leaves that resemble those of a maple. Once used in folk medicine for its digestive properties. Today, it is recognised as a precious indicator species for the biodiversity of ancient woodlands.

### About Lacelle forest
### About Lacelle forest
The Lacelle forest is located in Corrèze (19) on the Limousin granite plateaus (Plateau des Millevaches) and is divided into three parts. An plot of 18 ha of meadows leased to a local farmer, a second plot of around 20 ha that was clear-cut back in 2013 and which has not been reconstituted, and a third plot of approximately 30 ha of tree stands. The Pradel stream runs through the plots. The tree stands will be managed as an irregular high forest, as will the clear-cut plot, on which reforestation is planned. Due to the clear-cutting carried out by the previous owner, which has not been reconstituted, it will take many years to recover a forest like this one but it has good potential for biodiversity. Our ambition is to manage this complex forest according to the principles of mixed forestry with a continuous cover, adopting Nature-based Solutions to restore and enhance biodiversity, while ensuring sustainable management of forest resources.
