Creating a Tree Registry on Trees That Count is a meaningful way to contribute to Aotearoa New Zealand's native reforestation efforts.
Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, remembering a loved one, or encouraging donations instead of gifts — setting up a registry allows individuals or businesses to support the planting of native trees.
By creating a registry, you're inviting others to join you in making a positive environmental impact.
