The Mission
What is Co-foresting?
(Verb)
Bringing together a group of like-minded individuals and organisations to preserve land and plant new woodland or forestry.
We’ll admit it… the word ‘co-forest’ is our own creation, you won’t find it in the dictionary (yet!). But we don’t want to just create a brand name, we want to create an action.
Who are we?
As the name may suggest, Co-forest is about collaboration, so today we’re proud to say that whilst Co-forest is an organisation dedicated to leaving an environmental legacy, ‘we’ are the hundreds of volunteers and dozens of companies who have come together to put the planet first.
The Co-forest mission
We’re on a mission to bring people together and create a Co-forest near their town or city. We believe that through collective action we can engage people across the UK to lead by example and plant their very own forest legacy.
Why Co-forest
There may be a number reasons why you’d like to Co-forest
Co-forest is part of the solution. We actively contribute to global reforestation efforts to create a healthier, more sustainable planet for future generations.
Carbon Offsetting
Count the carbon captured through tree planting against your carbon targets
Environmental Conscience
Beyond carbon capture , you’ll be delivering new habitat and supporting a growing ecosystem
Social Responsibility
Engage your employees whilst also setting an example amongst your clients and peers
Leaving a legacy
Be part of a project which will leave an impactful legacy for generational to come
Co-forest Collaborators
Co-forest was conceived by Bath-based digital technology agency, Storm Consultancy. Now it’s own legal entity, Co-forest has since partnered with and received advice from community and environmental experts like Ecowild and the Forest of Avon Trust to help in the creation of the inaugural forest Co-forest:Acorn and in developing a blueprint for the future.
Organisations involved
Our next site
Can you help us find our next Co-forest site?
Join us in the search for our next Co-forest site, where environmental impact begins anew. Your support can help identify areas ready for reforestation, creating lasting positive change.
We’re looking for 20-50 acres in the Bristol and Bath region which can provide an opportunity for tree planting, forest restoration, grassland and wildflower meadow creation and more.
Let’s talk trees
We would love to hear from you if you or your business would like to offer some in-kind expertise or support. If you’d like to get involved in the Co-forest vision, donate as a business, help us find a new co-forest site or simply discuss the project further, we’d love to hear from you.
