We plant trees

rusticasa® has joined the partner community of the non-governmental organization One Tree Planted.

As an environmental charity, One Tree Planted is committed to making it easier for individuals and companies to give back to the environment, create a healthier climate, protect biodiversity and help reforestation efforts around the world. All by planting trees!

Started in 2014, One Tree Planted has more than doubled the number of trees planted year after year. Today, the organization works with reforestation partners around the world who help get trees in the ground to restore forests after fires and floods, create jobs, build communities and protect the habitat for biodiversity.

In 2019, more than 4,000,000 trees were planted. By 2020, it is expected to reach 15,000,000!

In addition to ensuring the reforestation of logging areas through forest certification programs, rusticasa® also contributes with each house built by planting 100 trees in areas at risk of desertification. Now, you can actively participate for the regeneration of degraded forests, improving the ecological balance, with the purchase of your house, or making a direct donation to One Tree Planted.
