We're empowering families to convert underused agricultural land into high-impact, carbon-storing forests. By leveraging AFF's afforestation expertise and Funga's innovative soil biodiversity restoration, we're not just planting trees—we're maximizing their growth and climate impact.

Funga and the American Forest Foundation Empower Family Landowners to Grow New Forests and Restore Soil Biodiversity Forests are a powerful tool in the fight against climate change. As the "lungs of the Earth," they naturally absorb and store vast amounts of carbon, making them a powerful tool to combat the climate ...

Family landowners could be a vital piece of the climate solution puzzle, but often face barriers to accessing carbon markets.

We're proud to announce a new collaboration between the American Forest Foundation (AFF) and Funga is closing this gap!

By combining our strengths, we're not only planting trees—we're supercharging their growth and carbon storage. This collaboration demonstrates that climate solutions don't have to compete; they can instead amplify one another to create a bigger positive impact.

The soil microbiome is the bedrock of any healthy forest, and is especially vital when planting new ones. That's why our belowground restoration is a powerful ally for Chestnut Carbon's work in large-scale forest restoration.
