From Flower to Forest: How Your Ounce of Cannabis Plants a Tree

By trovecannabis | | Community

At Trove, we’re rooted in more than just cannabis. We’re rooted in community, sustainability, and a shared responsibility to care for the planet we all call home. 

That’s why we’ve partnered with Trees for the Future to help with our 1 Ounce 1 Tree initiative. Trees for the Future is a global nonprofit organization dedicated to restoring degraded lands and revitalizing farming communities through the power of agroforestry. 

Agroforestry is “the intentional integration of trees and shrubs into crop and animal farming systems to create environmental, economic, and social benefits.” USDA

With every full ounce of cannabis flower that you purchase at Trove, we plant a tree. It’s as simple as that. 

Why Trees?

Trees do more than stand tall – they breathe life into our ecosystems. 

  • They purify our air.
  • They protect soil and water systems.
  • They create homes for wildlife. 
  • They play a key role in stabilizing our climate.

And through Trees for the Future, they also help empower farmers, support thriving local food systems, and break cycles of poverty in regions most affected by deforestation.

Why Trees for the Future?

Since 1989, Trees for the Future has planted more than 300 million trees! That’s enough trees to wrap around Earth’s equator more than 11 times if you planted them one every 10 feet. 

We can hear the collective mind blowing from here. 🤯

Their award-winning Forest Garden program trains farmers in sustainable land use practices, helping them transform barren landscapes into green, productive, and life-sustaining farms. If that wasn’t enough, in 2023, Trees for the Future was named a United Nations World Restoration Flagship, recognizing their large-scale ecosystem restoration efforts as among the best on the planet! What’s not to love? 

Cannabis That Gives More Than Just Highs

Your decision to shop local and buy cannabis at Trove is growing more than just good vibes, it’s growing forests. 

Our pledge through our 1 Ounce 1 Tree initiative is simple: For every full-ounce of cannabis flower sold, one tree seedling is donated through Trees for the Future. That tree goes on to improve the lives of farmers, restore biodiversity, and combat the effects of climate change. In this day and age, we need to do all we can to help Mother Nature repair, flourish, and feel loved.

Through various organizations, we’ve donated over 24,500 trees and that number keeps growing! If you’d like to keep track of how many trees we’ve donated, check out the banner on our homepage

Get Your Hands Dirty

We love that many of our customers want to give back. In addition to buying an ounce of your favorite flower, we encourage you to plant a tree on your own! Just make sure that the tree is a native species and has adequate room to grow and thrive. A little dirt under your nails is a small price to pay for a greener tomorrow. And we love everything green!

Sustainability is a journey, and we’re proud to walk it with our community. When you shop at Trove, you’re not just a super badass with impeccable taste, you’re investing in a more sustainable future.

Let’s keep the good growing.
