Bridges Produce and Trees for the Future Partner for Earth Week 2014

Bridges Organic Produce is partnering with Trees for the Future this Earth Day with a goal of plating 25,000 trees. A photo featuring students from a Cameroon school, who were Trees for the Future recipients earlier this year, will be posted on the Bridges Produce Facebook and twitter pages beginning Earth Day, April 22, 2014. Bridges Produce will then plant 10 trees with Trees for the Future for every Facebook like or retweet this photo receives during Earth Week, up to 25,000 trees!

Through their Earth Day partnership, Bridges Produce aims to highlight the amazing work being done by Trees for the Future all around the world. The photo being used in this promotion features students from Cameroon taken in January, 2014. The students worked with Trees for the Future to plant trees along the small waterway that provides water for their school. The trees will protect the stream from erosion and provide shade to reduce water loss and a place to cool off and relax.

Since 1989, Trees for the Future has been helping communities around the world plant trees. Through seed distribution, agroforestry training, and our country programs, they have empowered rural groups to restore tree cover to their lands. Planting trees protects the environment and helps to preserve traditional livelihoods and cultures for generations. Bridges Produce is a longtime partner of Trees for the Future, an organization who they believe aligns with their agricultural and sustainability goals and they are proud to be partnering with them this Earth Day.

Visit Bridges Produce’s Facebook at facebook.com/BridgesProduce or their twitter account at twitter.com/BridgesProduce between April 22 and April 28 to donate 10 trees!
