It\u2019s National Arbor Day, the perfect opportunity to honor trees and everything they do for us and the planet. Jiffy is partnering with ForestNation to celebrate in a very special way. We\u2019re inviting everyone to participate in ForestNation\u2019s reforestation project through Gift a Forest<\/a>, their new egifting program. Simply enter your details here<\/a> to plant five trees in the Jiffy Forest.<\/p>\n ForestNation set out to transform how the world gifts over 15 years ago. Instead of items that often end up having a negative impact, they offer businesses and other organizations the chance to give something more environmentally friendly \u2013and really connect with their customers and other stakeholders.<\/p>\n \u201cGifts are magical,\u201d says Andrew Pothecary, ForestNation CEO. \u201cWe wanted to enable people to give back to Mother Earth at the same time.\u201d<\/p>\n So they created Tree Kits<\/a>: Tiny cups and pouches that can be customized with logos and personalized messages for a wide variety of occasions. Even better, each one contains everything the recipient needs to grow their own tree, including high-quality seeds, instructions, and an organic Jiffy-7 Pellet<\/a>.<\/p>\n Over 500,000 J-7 Pellets have gone into ForestNation Tree Kits to date. The pellets provide the gifted trees with the best start: Not only do they contain essential nutrients for the trees as they emerge from the seed, they\u2019re surrounded by special netting made from biodegradable PLA. This plant-based material protects the young trees\u2019 roots and prevents transplant shock once the seedlings are ready to be planted in the ground.<\/p>\n \u201cI really value our partnership with Jiffy,\u201d says Andrew. \u201cJiffy\u2019s commitment to sustainability aligns with our own and they\u2019ve been with us every step of the way. In fact, Don Willis [Product Manager for Jiffy Pellets] is my go-to Forestry<\/a> expert \u2013 he has always given us important information about how to grow trees and reforest our planet.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m delighted to support ForestNation with its mission,\u201d says Don . \u201cAt Jiffy, we\u2019ve built up huge experience in Forestry over the last 50 years by working closely with our partners. Our solutions \u2013 not just Jiffy Pellets, but Preforma Plugs<\/a>, and Jiffy Pots<\/a> \u2013 are used by tree propagators and growers all over the world. Now I hope we can make ForestNation\u2019s new project a reality.\u201d<\/p>\n Which brings us to the best part about ForestNation gifts: The \u2018You Plant We Plant\u2019 concept. For every Tree Kit registered on their website, ForestNation pledge to plant at least one tree in their reforestation initiatives in developing countries. They\u2019ve planted 2 million trees so far and now they\u2019ve set themselves an ambitious target: 1 billion trees pledged for their reforestation program in the next year.<\/p>\n To help achieve the target, ForestNation recently launched its latest gifting idea, Gift a Forest<\/a>, which shows recipients how many trees have been planted on their behalf through a personalized story on their phone.<\/p>\n This Arbor Day, we have 500 trees to pledge through Gift a Forest. It\u2019s easy and it\u2019s free to participate: Just enter your details here<\/a> by May 5 and we\u2019ll make sure five trees in the Jiffy Forest. You can follow our progress on your phone.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" To celebrate Arbor Day, Jiffy is planting up to 500 trees through ForestNation’s Plant a Forest egifting program.
