### Expected gain
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. This expected gain is referred to as “gross" because it is calculated on the basis of the price of the tree excluding VAT.

### Chestnut
A symbol of abundance, generosity, and longevity, the Sweet Chestnut is the tree of autumn feasts and generous harvests, one that has nourished people and animals alike for millennia. It is a warm and meaningful gift for a birth, a well-earned retirement, or any moment that celebrates fullness of life.
Its chestnuts are a vital food resource for wild boar, deer, squirrels, and many bird species in autumn, while its summer flowers are among the most nectar-rich in Europe, attracting a multitude of pollinators. A single mature chestnut can shelter hundreds of insect species on its own.
The Sweet Chestnut (Castanea sativa) is a deciduous tree native to southern Europe, capable of living several hundred years and reaching impressive dimensions. Its naturally moisture-resistant wood has been used for centuries in construction, cooperage, and furniture-making.

### About Launay Guen Forest
### About Launay Guen Forest
The Launay Guen forest is located in the Côtes-d’Armor in Brittany, France. This region is characterised by a cool climate with abundant rainfall (over 1000 mm/year), often misty and windy.
Situated on a south-east facing slope, the woods stretch across from a soft hill, and it borders the pond of Launay’s castle.
With a total area of 121 hectares, it’s divided into 11 forestry sites of varied sizes and types. We acquired it in 2021 from a private owner.
