Who We Are

Land Life is a technology-driven reforestation company with the mission to help restore the world’s 2 billion hectares of degraded land. We plant trees at scale across the globe to kickstart ecosystems and the communities that depend on them. We are an international scale-up based in the Netherlands with projects in the US, Canada, Spain, Australia, and other places. In the 2024 planting season, we restored over 21,000 acres (over 8,500 hectares) of land globally, planting over 13 million trees.

Land Life’s fifth season of implementation in Colorado will be conducted from mid-April to mid-November. Over 550 hectares of fire affected lands are being restored this season.
