A tree, an eco-responsible gift for a special occasion!

When you give a tree, you give more than just a physical object – you give a living, growing part of nature that has a lasting impact. Our responsible forestry methods ensure that each tree is planted with care and follows sustainable practices that benefit both local communities and the environment. It’s a gift that not only brings joy to one person but also contributes to the greater good of society and the Earth. Choose a gift that grows in value, impact, and meaning; a tree that represents the values of sustainability, ethics, and environmental responsibility.

The trees you gift to a loved one will grow in one of our forests in France or Denmark. It is possible to visit the forest in France, between April and October and all year round in Denmark. We do not physically label the trees in our forests to keep our interventions minimal and best preserve the nature. But when you offer a tree or trees as a gift to someone, we will provide you with information such as GPS coordinates, to locate the forest. That way the recipient can go for a walk in the forest, where their tree or trees are growing.

When you create your gift using our gift process, you can choose exactly which tree you would like to give as a gift. You can see what species it is, which forest it will be planted in, the felling horizon and the expected profit from the trees when they are felled and sold as certified timber many years from now. We plant trees in Danish and French forests. This means you are free to choose whether the trees should grow in Denmark or France, and also in which of our forests. For example, you could choose an oak tree that grows in the Den Gamle Grus forest in Nysum in North Jutland. We take care of the planting and maintenance and send the recipient of the gift regular updates when something new happens in the forest where the tree grows.

To create a gift and give a tree to the person of your choice, all you need to do is follow our gift process. You create an account, select one or more trees, and fill in the recipient's details. Afterwards, you can choose an image, write a personalised message to the recipient, and select the gift card through which you'd like to inform them about the gift that awaits. You can choose between two delivery forms: in PDF or via email. However, if you wish to gift multiple trees, we recommend purchasing them from the TreeShop and then creating the gifts directly from your EcoTree account. The gift-creation steps remain the same.

Once the eco-friendly gift is given, the recipient will only need to create an EcoTree account or log in and enter their gift code here. The trees will then be transferred directly to them. They will become the full owner of one or more trees growing in our forests. They will benefit from the proceeds of harvesting these trees when they reach maturity. In the meantime, they will contribute to society and nature by owning these trees, which help enrich biodiversity and mitigate the devastating effects of global climate change.

Who doesn't love trees? Forests not only sustain us, but they are also poetic and a symbol of life. Giving a tree to a loved one is subtly conveying the message that they are the proud owner of a part of this entity we call a forest, which not only enables us to breathe but also shelters the richest terrestrial biodiversity, filters water and air, and retains and enriches the soil. How can one not be happy to receive such a simple yet symbolic gift? Therefore, a tree is the timeless and sustainable gift through which you are sure to bring joy.

An eco-friendly and ethical gift goes beyond just being sustainable; it’s a gift that nurtures both the recipient and the planet. Unlike materialistic gifts that often contribute to overconsumption and waste, a tree gift from EcoTree supports reforestation efforts, helping to restore ecosystems, combat climate change, and preserve biodiversity.

There are many great reasons why our customers choose to give trees as gifts to someone they care about. For many, it’s about giving a gift that not only reflects the recipient’s love for nature but also contributes to creating more forests. Maybe you know someone who values the environment and wants to make a positive impact? Or perhaps you’re looking for a gift with lasting significance?
