Embedding Restoration Into Every Purchase
I pledge to plant one tree for every single order received.
I'm helping restoring our planet with TreeSisters who are dedicated to replenishing the Earth’s forests.
Every time you purchase an online service, course, workshop, or support a fundraising event with me, I'll donate a sapling for planting: a tree that will be planted through TreeSisters who've planted over 15 million trees.
For the love of the Natural World,
Christine

Envisioning a world in which it is normal for everyone to protect & restore themselves & their world
Clare in a three minute video with the invitation to us all to make it as normal to give back to Nature
as it currently is to take Nature for granted and to shift from a consumer species to a restorer species.

About
TreeSisters is a social change movement and a tropical reforestation organisation working towards normalising cultural reciprocity with Nature. Join us in making ecological restoration the new norm!
Our History
TreeSisters was founded back in 2009 by Clare Dubois. One cold winter's night, her car skidded on ice and crashed into a tree! In the moments that followed, she received a vision of reforesting the Tropics in 10 years through reinstating the Feminine principle and mobilising the women! It’s an inspiring story which Clare shares in her first public presentation at the Women on Fire Conference in 2011. You can watch it here.
You can read a summary of how we have grown since then and read our latest Impact Report here.
Our Vision & Mission
We envision a world in which it is normal for everyone to protect and restore themselves and their world. Our mission is to rapidly accelerate tropical reforestation by inspiring and channeling women's Nature-based feminine leadership into local and global action.
You can read more about our unique approach, our values and our culture here.
Our Charitable Objectives
Increasing Green Cover. We do this through the funding of long-term, sustainable reforestation projects across the tropical belt. We are currently working with a number of Reforestation Partners across multiple tropical ecosystems. You find out about them all here.
Education & Women’s Leadership. We do this through building our inclusive global community of TreeSisters, offering every woman (and increasing numbers of men!) the inner and outer pathways to change. You can explore our many offerings here and are welcome to join us where you are called.

Why Trees? Why Now?
TreeSisters Approach to Reforestation
Trees offer humanity one of the most crucial ecosystem services available to us at this phase of our evolution. Currently global warming is threatening all life on Earth. While we figure out how to reduce carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, the forests of our world are drawing it down into their roots, branches, boughs and leaves. They are invaluable in helping to cool us down. To provide any viable hope for future generations, we need to replace deforestation with a reforestation revolution. We can't wait for governments to lead the way. Together, we are restoring forests in 10+ major ecosystems including those in Madagascar, India, Brazil, Kenya, and Nepal, Mozambique, West Papua and Cameroon.
We plant trees to restore ecosystems and livelihoods whilst increasing protection against the extremes of climate change in multiple regions of the tropical forest belt. We do this in ways that recreate and restore natural forest ecosystems using indigenous species, fostering local knowledge and skills, and promoting women's participation. We strive to do it intelligently, appropriately, respectfully and successfully.
Forests play a vital role in the hydrological cycles of our world, sequestering the atmospheric carbon dioxide that is driving climate change. When trees are removed, vibrant ecosystems are often overfarmed, eroded and rendered infertile in a cascade effect that is mirrored with social decline, grinding poverty and climate extremes. Reforestation can rapidly reverse these trends, stabilizing and nourishing the soils, restoring watersheds, revitalizing dry springs and providing good quality water to large populations living downstream.

How You Can Help
Poem ~ Your Planetary Self
Let the birds take your clothes
Let the waves undo your holding back
Let the vines unravel your tired mind
And the earth savour your sweat and tears.
Let your stories burn off like rising mist,
As your past and the false floors of curbed self-love
Dissolve into butterfly wings and fire flies
As your edges blur and your Planetary Self ignites.
Let the trees bathe your breath
Let the meadows embrace you
Let the mountains and the bees remind you
Let the sky flood in and allow the clouds to guide you.
Let your undoing be as total
As your becoming is beautiful
And when the living world has climbed inside
Enough for you to feel four legs, scales and wings.
May you finally know yourself alive as all things –
Indivisible and responsible
Reborn into wholeness Natural, Sacred and Wild
Let the birds take your clothes
Let the waves undo your holding back
Let the vines unravel your tired mind
And the earth savour your sweat and tears.
Let your stories burn off like rising mist,
As your past and the false floors of curbed self-love
Dissolve into butterfly wings and fire flies
As your edges blur and your Planetary Self ignites.
Let the trees bathe your breath
Let the meadows embrace you
Let the mountains and the bees remind you
Let the sky flood in and allow the clouds to guide you.
Let your undoing be as total
As your becoming is beautiful
And when the living world has climbed inside
Enough for you to feel four legs, scales and wings.
May you finally know yourself alive as all things –
Indivisible and responsible
Reborn into wholeness Natural, Sacred and Wild
