We plant one tree on your behalf for every product purchased from Northern Threads, making you a partner in our global change mission. We have teamed up with edenprojects.org to plant trees with the support of locals, which is not only positive for the planet but it directly benefits the people living in the area providing food for themselves and their livestock, wood for fuel, as well as permanent and seasonal employment.
Tree Project
We don’t just talk-the-talk, but we also walk-the-walk. We have committed to planting one tree for every single purchase made on Northern Threads with the help of our good friends at Eden Projects. Our customers can feel good about their purchase knowing it drives towards our mission of making our planet a more sustainable place
Soil Fertilization
Trees replenish vital nutrients that absorb into the soil. These nutrients help to improve the health of the dirt and encourage further plant growth, which means desolate areas can become fertile and flourish.
Clean Air
Trees absorb toxic pollutants and release oxygen for us to breathe. With increasing levels of carbon dioxide rising, trees can help reduce the harmful effects of climate change.
Wood Source
Wood is an essential resource for fuel and shelter. We teach our cultivators on sustainable forestry method so that the trees can remain preserved and continue to get stronger for many years to come.
Rainwater Collection
Trees capture rainwater and minimize natural disaster risks like floods and landslides. Tree roots help remove pollutants and slow down water absorption into the soil which reduces the chances of waterside erosion and flooding.
Healthy Habitat
One tree can be called home by many different species of insects, moss, birds, and plants. Also, trees can help keep topsoil in place, which results in cleaner waters and healthier fish popultions.
Social Benefits
Reforestation provides job opportunities to local communities that will benefit all livelihoods. Not only does it provide a steady income, but it's also a reliable source of good to families in impoverished areas.
