With your support ($1 per tree planted) - we work with local communities in Marereni, Kenya to plant mangrove SeaTrees to restore coastal ecosystems.

This project restores and protects 640 hectares of highly degraded mangrove forest within Kilifi County in Kenya. With the help of project partners COBEC (Community Based Environmental Conservation) and the local community, SeaTrees will support the planting of over 775,000 mangrove trees at our new project site in Kenya. Learn more about this project in our new film: Salt Cure.

Every mangrove you help to plant: 

• Creates over 600 jobs for the local community.
• Ensures 40% of these jobs are held by women.
• Increases access to healthcare and food.
• Provides training to local villagers to manage mangrove nurseries.
• Protects local communities from storm surges and sea-level rise.
• Enhances fishing activities and resources.

You can also sign up for a SeaTrees Planting Subscription. Think about a SeaTrees subscription as a recurring donation - you can automatically plant a mangrove each month. Payments will be automatically charged on a monthly basis. No minimums or obligations – you can modify, skip, or cancel your subscription at any time!

Tax Deductible: SeaTrees is a program of 501c3 non-profit Sustainable Surf - meaning that Planting and Restoring SeaTrees is tax-deductible in the USA. Keep your donation receipt.

With your support ($2 per tree planted) - we work with our project partners WILDCOAST to plant 100,000 mangrove trees across 25 acres of mangrove habitat with the help of the local community members in the El Datil region of Laguna San Ignacio, Baja, Mexico.

This project provides living-wage employment and training opportunities for the local community, empowers gender equity, protects the area from increased climate change impacts, and safeguards critical habitats for several vulnerable species.
At the heart of this project is a local group of women, “Mujeres de El Dátil,” who were trained in 2019 by WILDCOAST on mangroves environmental services, seedlings collection and planting techniques, as well as monitoring and maintenance of restored sites.

Every mangrove you help to plant:

• Provides living-wage employment to the local community.
• Improves the livelihoods of   250+ inhabitants of El Dátil. 
• Trains 11+ women in project management and monitoring.
• Protects local areas and communities from sea-level rise and increased storm surges.
• Safeguards critical gray whale nursery habitat.

With your support we are working alongside Nature Collective to restore a portion of the watershed in Cardiff California, in the West Basin of San Elijo Lagoon Ecological Reserve near the inlet. This project is one of the most extensive wetland restorations in California.This salt marsh serves as a vital habitat for a variety of wildlife species and as one of the most extensive wetland restorations in California, restoration work is crucial to eliminate and manage invasive plant species, while reintroducing native species to the lagoon.

With your support - we work with Operation Crayweed and Sydney Insitute of Marine Science to restore the lost kelp forests along the South Bondi subtidal rocky reef in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

Crayweed is among the most important ecosystems on the planet, providing critical food and habitat for hundreds of species. These vast underwater forests support coastal food webs, sequester immense amounts of atmospheric carbon, produce oxygen for marine life, and support unique coastal biodiversity, which is not supported by any other seaweed species.

Each sq-ft of crayweed you restore helps by:

• bringing back a critical underwater forest habitat
• contributing to the recovery of economically important species like abalone and crayfish
• sequestering atmospheric carbon
• improving water quality
• reestablishing coastal food webs
• protecting coastal communities by stabilizing the coast and reducing wave action
