helping humans help trees

STRONG ROOTS INITIATIVE

In 2020, we built a mission to enhance assisted migration efforts through education and collaboration. We launched the Strong Roots Initiative in 2023 and today, we have a growing network of professional foresters, forest landowners and concerned citizens working together to sustain forests for future generations. 

Our first success story, New Growth 2036 is thriving in in the Pacific Northwest. Insights from projects like New Growth 2036 can help us safeguard forests and ensure trees’ resilience amidst rapid climate change.
