Sapinbelge.be is partnering with Graine de Vie for the reforestation of the planet .
Since 2018, our online Christmas tree sales site has been doing something for nature. In order to make our company more ecological and in harmony with our planet, we have partnered with Graine de Vie , which will plant ten trees in Madagascar for each tree sold. Whether you choose a Nordmann fir or a spruce, whether cut or potted, you will contribute to reforestation thanks to our partnership.
What does the Graine de Vie association do?
Graine de Vie is an eco-responsible association that offsets the carbon footprint by planting trees and expanding nurseries. Graine de Vie's current plantations are taking place in the Madagascar National Park. The association also plays a role in raising awareness of the environmental and sustainability cause. It trains nurserymen and sets up innovative and unifying projects. The other objective of the association is to include women in the realization of these projects, at the local level. The European members who work on site, alongside the locals, are all volunteers, while the association's projects require the employment of many indigenous day laborers. In addition, Graine de Vie contributes to biodiversity. Indeed, the trees planted are mainly fruit trees that provide a sustainable and essential income for the local economy.
Why did we choose Graine de Vie?
Graine de Vie is one of the most serious associations in terms of reforestation and planting. We are proud to be able to present ourselves as an eco-partner of this NGO which employs nearly 400 people paid for the reforestation of Madagascar. The association has already planted more than 130 different species of trees and in 10 years, it can display this impressive figure of more than 14 million trees planted thanks to donations and its partners, of which we are now a part. Knowing that the average carbon footprint of a European is 10 tons of CO2 per year, Graine de Vie theoretically offsets the annual carbon footprint of 6000 people.
Don't be fooled by your preconceived ideas, an artificial tree is much worse for nature than a natural tree . You can participate in reforestation by simply ordering a tree on our site .
