Frequently Asked Questions
How do companies use tree planting to increase survey response rates?
Tree-planting rewards give people a reason to respond that goes beyond the survey itself — participants receive a real, trackable tree planted in their name. Organizations like JLL and LBS Sustainability IR have found that pairing a verified environmental reward with feedback requests creates a more meaningful exchange, which can contribute to stronger response rates than a standard survey alone.
Can tree rewards improve employee engagement programs?
When employees can see a GPS-tagged tree planted on their behalf and track its impact over time, it adds a tangible, personal dimension to workplace programs that generic incentives rarely achieve. Tree rewards work especially well alongside training, onboarding, and sustainability initiatives, where a sense of shared purpose already exists and a real-world impact moment can deepen it.
What results can businesses expect from adding tree planting to their programs?
Results vary by industry, audience, and program design, but the consistent theme across OneSeed customers is that participants find the experience more memorable and meaningful than standard incentives. The environmental impact is verifiable and shareable, which also gives organizations a genuine story to tell stakeholders, without overstating what a tree-planting program alone can accomplish.
How does OneSeed verify that trees are actually planted?
OneSeed works with vetted forest restoration partners operating in regions like Kenya, the Philippines, Honduras, Bolivia, and Nepal. Each tree is assigned GPS coordinates, a photo, and ongoing monitoring data. Participants receive a personal tree page they can revisit over time, and organizations receive aggregated impact metrics — so the impact is traceable, not just claimed.
Is tree planting a credible sustainability action for businesses?
Tree planting is one component of a broader sustainability strategy, not a replacement for operational emissions reductions. Where it works best is as a visible, human-scale action that connects employees, customers, or event attendees to environmental restoration in a direct way. OneSeed is a UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration partner, and all planting projects are selected for verified community and ecological impact.
