The LifeTree System: A Mother Trees Model
Total Trees Pledged: 250,000,000Supporting actions: Nursery Development,
Mother Trees is an international non-profit organization that brings immediate solutions to the growing climate crisis and loss of biodiversity. Mother Trees is helping farmers, community leaders, and forest stewards to restore the planet’s many degraded landscapes with the most cost effective and impactful ideas in regenerative agroforestry and forest ecosystem restoration. Together we will plant 250,000,000 trees by 2030, converting degraded landscapes into living legacies.
We are scaling agroforestry on highly degraded farmscapes where the land is often bare. We are also helping restore degraded forest landscapes with rich biodiversity. Both of these elements are core to the LifeTree System which we implement in all our projects. By 2030 we will have planted over 250,000,000 trees across several projects.

To support continual growth of our programs as they restore farmland and forests, Mother Trees has developed a new microlending model called seed lending. Through our network of Seed Banks, we lend the right tree seeds to farmers, and they grow trees according to the LifeTree agroforestry model. Then they return 3-7 times the amount of seed borrowed, building the Seed Bank’s ability to support more farmers. Once farmers complete planting their agroforestry system, we support the community in reforestation efforts aimed at addressing local needs and opportunities.
The LifeTree System deployed across Mother Trees’s projects increases the capacity of forest management committees to restore forests through better management, to lead sustainable economic activities, to follow protocols for carbon sequestration, to update monitoring infrastructure, and to plant millions of native and naturalized trees that meet community needs and biodiversity objectives.
