Planting Trees for a Sustainable Future

RESPECT FOR OUR PLANET

At Zeitholz, we combine products made with natural materials with a concrete partnership: for selected products sold, we fund tree planting through Trees for the Future (TREES).

For every Zeitholz watch, pair of sunglasses, perfume and jewellery set sold, we fund the planting of one tree. If a set contains several of these products, the number of trees increases accordingly.

TREES works with farming communities in sub-Saharan Africa through its Forest Garden Approach. This agroforestry model combines trees and crops and helps farmers make their land more productive and resilient over the long term.

1 product = 1 tree

Every qualifying Zeitholz product contributes to tree planting through Trees for the Future.

For each watch, pair of sunglasses, perfume or jewellery set sold, we fund the planting of one tree. If a set contains several qualifying products, the number of trees increases accordingly.

Your Tree Passport includes information about the supported project, planting region and the tree species used there.

THE FOREST GARDEN APPROACH BY TREES

CARBON SEQUESTRATION

Trees and agroforestry systems can store carbon and contribute to climate action.

SOIL & AGRICULTURE

The Forest Garden Approach combines trees and crops and helps farmers protect their soil and use it productively over the long term.

FOOD SECURITY

A greater variety of food crops can provide families with a more diverse and reliable food supply.

BIODIVERSITY

More diverse agroforestry systems create habitats and can support biodiversity on agricultural land.

LAND RESTORATION

TREES works with farmers to restore degraded land through agroforestry.

Together, We’re Growing a Greener Future

Together with TREES and your support, we have already funded the planting of 9,304 trees in Africa.

Our goal is to fund a total of 10,000 trees by the end of 2026. Every Zeitholz watch, pair of sunglasses, perfume and jewellery set sold brings us closer to that goal.

Your Tree Passport

With every qualifying Zeitholz product, you receive a personal Tree Passport with information about the project supported by your purchase.

Information about the tree species planted within the project

EXAMPLE

The Tree Passport refers to the supported project and the trees planted within it, rather than tracking one individual tree.

Who Is Trees for the Future?

Trees for the Future (TREES) is an international nonprofit organisation with more than 30 years of experience in agroforestry and land restoration. At the heart of its work is the Forest Garden Approach, which trains farmers to combine trees and crops on their own land.

Through this approach, TREES supports farming communities in restoring degraded land and developing more diverse and resilient agricultural systems. You can learn more about TREES, its projects and its results directly at Trees for the Future.
