Some of our best farming tools are trees

Propagate
Blending trees into farming systems is called agroforestry. These practices are a catalyst for positive change in our climate, food system, and communities. Propagate created an ecosystem to support farm transformation with design software, tree planting and management services, and project financing solutions.
Making it easy to put trees to work for our climate, food system, and farmers’ livelihoods.

Why this matters
Adding productive trees to agricultural lands is a win-win for our climate and for farmers. Trees sequester carbon and stabilize soils, increasing water retention and resistance to flooding. Their canopies provide shelter to animals and crops, reducing the effects of wind and extreme heat. Fruit, nut and timber yields diversify a farm׳s income, giving rural communities support.
