Planting forests together for a healthy future

Imagine a world where life can thrive…
where forests ring to the sound of birds, where the air and water are clear and clean, where children play and experience what it is to be part of the family of nature. A healthy world for the children of all species
What we do
Children’s Forest is a movement to support children and their communities to reconnect with nature and plant forests for the future generations.
We connect Landowners, Children and Nature Educators to plant and tend trees to support biodiversity and healthy cultural regeneration.

How we’re making a difference

HEALTHY PLANET
Planting trees helps mitigate climate change by sequestering carbon, nourishing the soil, cleaning the air and water and providing habitat for many species.

QUALITY OF LIFE
We support the mental health and wellbeing of young people and address eco anxiety by enabling them to be part of the positive solution of restoring our environment.

INSPIRING HOPE
We offer nature connection to inspire belonging and hope in the hearts of children and empower communities to take positive action.

CULTURAL RENEWAL
We are helping to build regenerative culture and intergenerational communities through the planting and tending of the Childrens Forests.
Forest from Seed
The Forest from Seed Project enables communities to come together to gather tree seeds, grow young trees in a tree nursery and plant them as Childrens Forests. This empowers children and their communities to engage in a positive solution to climate change and participate in eco restoration and nature connection at a grassroots level.
