PROGRAM BASICS & FAQ
Agroforestry, Simplified.
We work with farmers and land owners to identify opportunities for agroforestry systems, based on short and long-term goals. Whether you raise pastured livestock or grow grain; we offer solutions for agroforestry. After a project is designed and vetted, we work to match context specific capital to finance the project.

Frequently Asked Questions
What tree species do you plant?
We plant trees in accordance with your climate, soil types, and current operational requirements. This can range across a variety of regionally-adapted fruit, nut, and timber crops.
What does my return look like?
An agroforestry system can yield between 1.5x and 3x of a typical lease rate or return for a given piece of farmland, depending on project size and the selected tree crops.
When will I see a return?
Depending on the trees selected, returns can be actualized as early as year 4. For crops that have a longer time to yield, like nuts or timber, return timelines are closer to year 15.
Who manages the land?
We work with local and regional agroforestry leaders in partnership with our team to manage and monitor the system and are committed to training local practitioners to generate new employment opportunities.
Who qualifies?
Sites must be able to support trees and/or shrubs. We typically work with sites in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Midwest and Southeast regions of the United States.
What are the steps?
After an agroforestry analysis and project sign off, we begin site preparation for installing the system. Site preparation can be a multi-year process.
