Deforestation is one of the biggest environmental challenges we face today, threatening ecosystems, wildlife, and the planet’s ability to regulate carbon. Ancient trees, like the coastal redwoods and giant sequoias, are some of our planet’s most vital resources in the fight against climate change. Yet, these majestic trees are disappearing at an alarming rate, with over 98% of old-growth redwood forests already lost.
We’re committed to making a difference by giving back to preserve the future of our planet.
Supporting reforestation efforts
Every month, we plant a tree for every customer and team member. With their continued support, we contribute to global reforestation and ecosystem restoration.
In 2025, we want to do more. So, we are partnering with pioneering individuals and organizations fighting to restore and protect our forests across the world.
Introducing Archangel Ancient Tree Archive
To kick off this year’s partnerships, we’re excited to join forces with David Milarch, co-founder of Archangel Ancient Tree Archive (AATA). David’s mission is to clone and replant the world’s most ancient and vital trees. These trees have stood for thousands of years, and are essential for maintaining healthy ecosystems, but they’re at risk.
After a life-changing near-death experience in 1991, David has been on a mission to propagate the genetics of ancient trees, creating “living libraries” of these giants and reforesting areas worldwide.
Check out David Milarch’s incredible story in the video below.
AATA’s efforts aim to reverse deforestation and ensure that future generations benefit from the ecological services these trees provide, from carbon sequestration to water cycle regulation.
Why this matters
Old-growth trees like the coastal redwoods once covered over 2 million acres of the California coast. Today, only a fraction remains.
By cloning and replanting these trees, AATA proves that restoration is possible, helping build a healthier and more sustainable future.
Coming soon: Planting ancient trees in our forest
This summer, we’ll work with David Milarch to plant cloned ancient trees in our Balquhidder forest. These trees are grown from the genetics of endangered redwoods and sequoias that are thousands of years old and are near extinction.
Each tree planted serves as a tangible connection to history and a reminder of the power of collaboration in preserving the natural world.
Join us in giving back
By planting trees, we’re creating a lasting legacy for future generations and helping restore our planet. Join us in supporting this incredible work, and stay tuned for more updates throughout the year.
