To bridge that trust gap, TreePassport combines boots-on-the-ground ecology with modern tree-tracking technology:
Every seedling or forest plot is mapped with precise GPS coordinates.
Trees are tracked and issued digital certificates, so donors can follow growth and survival over time.
Remote sensing, satellite imagery and ground-level data calculate accurate survival rates.
By shifting the focus from the quantity of “trees planted” to the quality of “trees grown,” every contribution creates verifiable, long-term benefits for both the climate and local communities.
🎯 Our Mission
To make every planted tree traceable, measurable and impactful.
🌍 Our Vision
A world where every person owns and nurtures a tree or forest, contributing to a healthier planet.
Radical Transparency
No abstract estimations or double-counting. Every sponsored tree represents a unique serialized QR tag anchored to exact physical GPS coordinates and verifiable visual timelines.
Community First
Forest restoration succeeds when local communities thrive. We pay smallholder growers direct wages for planting and tracking trees, creating sustainable socioeconomic livelihoods.
Scientific Integrity
We prioritize native, hyper-resilient dryland species like Moringa oleifera, Acacia abyssinica, and Croton megalocarpus to rebuild biodiversity and improve soil health.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does TreePassport verify tree planting coordinates?
Every tree registered on TreePassport must be scanned via our field mobile client. The app extracts high-accuracy GPS coordinates at the moment of scanning and automatically uploads the data. TreePassport admins review the uploaded visual seedling proof within five days before approving the coordinates to the public registry, to prevent double-counting.
Q: How do you verify that a tree was actually planted?
Every single planting is physically logged by our field teams with a time-stamped, GPS-tagged photograph at the time of planting, which is then uploaded directly to our open ledger.
Q: Can corporate sponsors export verification data?
Our public ledger under the Registry tab allows corporate ESG compliance officers to download a standardized CSV coordinate spreadsheet containing all verified latitude, longitude, planter names, and species details for transparency.
