How We're Helping Rebuild California's Forests
As part of our partnership with One Tree Planted, a non-profit organization focused on global reforestation, we're thrilled to announce we've officially helped plant hundreds of trees in our own neighborhood!
Since the California forest fires ravaged so much of the land surrounding our farm in Humboldt last year — and we were evacuated several times and faced the reality of potentially losing our home — it became hugely important to me that 707 Flora takes part in rebuilding what was lost.
We focused our April Earth Month donation to specifically help support One Tree Planted's Wildfire Restoration Project in the August Complex Fire Footprint. This was the same massive fire that nearly burned down our home!
We know there's still a lot of work to do — 2020's fire season consumed close to 3 million acres, resulting in hundreds of millions of trees that will need to be restored. But, in the meantime, we are so thankful for One Tree Planted's efforts to rebuild healthy forests and are excited to strengthen our partnership with them throughout this year — and for many years to come!
