Where Their Tree Grows

KENYA · 2°30'59.47"S, 40°29'02.36"E

Your pet’s tree is planted at the mangrove restoration project along the Kenyan coastline, where new trees rebuild coastal habitats and support the communities who depend on them.

Why did we plant in Kenya?

1,600+ hectares

of Kenyan mangroves have been completely lost, while another 23,000 hectares are degraded but potentially restorable.

Wetlands International
44% of GDP

comes from sectors highly dependent on nature and ecosystem services, including agriculture, construction, and industries that need reliable water. Forest loss is an economic threat, not merely an environmental one.

World Bank, 2026
2M+ households

living within five kilometers of Kenya’s forests depend significantly on them for water, food, grazing, fishing, fuel, honey, medicine, and other necessities.

Kenya Forest Service / UNFCCC

The site was chosen because new trees are genuinely needed here, and the species matches what the ecosystem calls for. Here, that means mangroves. According to the Blue Carbon Initiative, acre for acre they pull carbon out of the air about two to four times faster than mature tropical forest, and NOAA credits them with buffering coastlines against storms.

So while the tree may grow an ocean away, you’ll always know precisely where it stands. Your certificate carries the exact coordinates.

Grief has no destination. We help you carry it.

Grief is not just a single feeling; it’s a full-body shock that twists through you unpredictably. Not just sadness, but guilt, anger, complicated grief, the grief that comes before death, and the grief that shows up weeks or months later. We do not write about “moving on” or “healing completely.” We write about understanding what is happening, finding the support that helps, and learning to carry grief rather than outrun it.
