make a purchase, plant a mangrove
Mangroves are critically important coastal ecosystems but they are rapidly disappearing. To help save our planet, we donate 5% of proceeds to plant and restore mangrove forests throughout Baja, Mexico.


why mangroves?
Mangroves are lost at a rate of ~2% per year. Experts estimate that the carbon emissions from mangrove deforestation account for up to 10% of emissions from total global deforestation (despite covering just 0.7% of land coverage).
However, when protected or restored, mangrove ecosystems are carbon storage superpowers. They absorb incredible amounts of atmospheric carbon and store it in the ground. Mangroves are also important nursery habitat for many types of fish, birds and marine mammals. And they act as natural storm and sea level rise barriers, while also conducting nutrient cycling (water purification and filtration).

let's plant mangroves
We partner with WILDCOAST, a US & Mexico-based nonprofit organization, to donate 5% of our proceeds to WILDCOAST's ongoing work planting, restoring and permanently protecting mangrove habitat throughout northwest Mexico.
To date, WILDCOAST has permanently protected 71,375 acres of mangrove forests in Mexico via conservation concessions, and is working toward the goal of planting #OneMillionMangroves in cooperation with local communities throughout the Baja peninsula.

blue carbon offsets
Companies around the world (such as Apple) are recognizing that conserving and revitalizing mangroves and other coastal ecosystems (also referred to as Blue Carbon ecosystems) is vital to local communities, wildlife, and the global fight against climate change.
We’re excited to do our part by contributing 5% of proceeds to mangrove preservation and revitalization in Baja, Mexico. Every purchase plants a mangrove(s) and helps offset our collective carbon footprint.

mangroves & gray whales
WILDCOAST recently launched a new mangrove restoration project on 100 acres in the San Ignacio Lagoon in Baja California, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and critical habitat for gray whales (one of 3 lagoons in Baja where they birth and mate).
This project will plant and restore mangroves in the San Ignacio Lagoon by employing women from the surrounding local communities, providing critical economic resources that will help to improve household and community well-being. Investing in projects that employ women is a key feature of community building and sustainable development.
