People are becoming more and more aware of the importance of giving nature a helping hand. Discerning customers are likely to choose to buy from a company that does its bit to address climate change, and to support the environment.

Did you know that earth has lost 60% of its wildlife since 1970? Most of these extinctions have been due to habitat loss. It has never been more important to help nature and give our wildlife the space it needs to survive.

One of the best ways to support biodiversity and provide new habitat is through planting trees. At Make it Wild we are experienced at creating woodland. As of April 2020 we had planted 36,000 trees in North Yorkshire. (Updated, April 2022 – we have now planted 56,000 trees!) Between 2018 and 2028 we have pledged to plant 100,000 trees as part of the Northern Forest, and we’re on target to achieve this goal.

We have supported all kinds of businesses to be more ‘green’ through planting trees, and many of them have found it beneficial as a marketing story. You can join them by buying your woodland of fifteen young trees here.

For example, Origin Finance, who were the first business in their sector to be ‘carbon neutral’ shared their story in a successful social media campaign.

We supported Full Circle Funerals in planting a tree for every family who uses their services. Sarah Jones, Director said “We wanted to offer families the opportunity to plant trees to create carbon neutral funerals.  Make it Wild have been really knowledgeable, supportive and responsive in making this possible. I am very grateful, and so are the families we help.”

Some of our clients choose to plant a tree per client, on a quarterly basis or at an interval to suit them. Others choose to make a bigger gesture, by sponsoring a small woodland, like Thompson Architecture did. This allows them to make a big PR splash.

Your business can sponsor any number of trees. We offer a simple online purchase of fifteen trees which will grow to form a lovely copse. Some businesses sponsor many more trees. For bigger firms, a sizeable woodland of hundreds or even thousands of trees can be arranged. We offer volume discounts for bigger woodlands. Please contact us to discuss your requirements, and to arrange a quotation. Whether you would like to sponsor a tree per client, or a few thousand trees, we can help. Please contact us by emailing helen@makeitwild.co.uk and we can discuss your business woodland sponsorship requirements.

If you would like your team to contribute to the maintenance of the trees, we can arrange that – it makes a great team building activity! Many of our partner businesses feel that helping to look after the trees is part of the fun.
