One candle, one tree
Trees can change lives. Originalhome plants one tree for every candle sold via Trees for the Future. This non-profit organisation focuses on land restoration in developing communities in Africa to break the cycle of hunger, poverty and environmental destruction. Let’s start planting!
Together, we can green up the planet and improve the lives of many farming families.
The originalhome candles plant trees in Africa. These trees make the planet greener and support farmers in developing communities. They are planted by Trees for the Future (TREES). TREES works with thousands of farming families and confronts hunger, poverty, and environmental degradation. With trees, tools and training programs, they teach farmers how to sustainably farm their land. This way families can thrive on their land long-term.
Did you know trees have a much higher rate of survival when being cared for by a farmer?
