Adopt a single tree.
Watch it live, from space.

We find and monitor individual savanna trees from satellite data, and pay local communities to keep them standing. Adopt one, name it, and follow its health for years.

How it works

Every tree, individually accountable

🛰️
STEP 1

Detected from satellite

Individual trees are located from the free Meta/WRI 1 m canopy map, with crowns refined from sub-meter imagery on “hero” trees. Each gets a permanent ID.

💚
STEP 2

Adopted by you

Choose a tree, give it a name, and support it for a year. You receive a certificate and a living page that updates over time.

🌳
STEP 3

Protected by the community

Your contribution pays a local steward to keep the tree from clearing and fire. We verify its health monthly from Sentinel-2.

Built on real, open data

Honest about what satellites can see

Sparse savanna trees are the easiest case for satellite detection — far simpler than dense rainforest. We’re transparent about every layer: free data locates and monitors trees; paid sub-meter imagery draws their crowns and tracks growth.

Why donors trust it

  • Each tree has a permanent ID and an append-only observation log.
  • Every datapoint shows its source, confidence and model version.
  • Payments are stewardship (PES) — survival-linked, not carbon credits.
  • One-click monitoring reports for donors and auditors.

A real place, real people

The pilot sits at the gateway to Nkasa Rupara National Park, in a registered communal conservancy where communities already earn from protecting nature. Stewardship is coordinated with WWF Namibia.
