Our tree distribution program is customized to make life easier for your organization and audience by streamlining distribution projects from start to finish. 

This platform gives your audience a simple way to select and reserve their trees online and find the best planting location for their home. The technology makes it easy for your team to manage a successful project by tracking orders, showing planting locations, and highlighting tree benefits.

Education and engagement

Your audience can access an online mapping tool that takes the guesswork out of where to plant the tree on a specific property. The mapping technology identifies ideal planting locations that help maximize the air, water, energy, and carbon benefits for any home. 

Leading up to the distribution event or delivery, your customers or community members will receive automated emails and texts with reminders and updates about their order. If you're hosting a walk-up event, the technology can also be used for on-site registration.

Staff efficiency 

With an easy-to-use dashboard, your organization has a full view of tree orders and the projected impact of the trees. You'll also have our help in sourcing trees from our network of trusted growers and nurseries. By streamlining order management, recipient education, and calculating metrics through the technology, your organization can spend less time organizing and more time engaging your audience.
