Trees for Ösel Hita’s Birthday Campaign

On the 12th of February, our founder, Ösel Hita, celebrated his birthday!

For his birthday, we are inviting you to join our Trees for Ösel Hita’s Birthday Campaign:

Love and intention, Ösel Hita Birthday Trees is about celebrating life by planting life. 
On Ösel Hita’s birthday, we plant trees as a symbol of growth, connection, and a future rooted in care for all beings.

Each tree we plant is a symbol of growth, compassion, and a future rooted in kindness. With love and intention, we plant!

If you want to contribute to this campaign, please visit this page.

And if you planted a tree (or trees) in celebration of Ösel’s birthday, please remember to let us know! Please complete this report form on our website and upload photos of your planting and dedication.

We wish you a happy birthday, Ösel! May you guide and lead us for many years to come!

Please share this. Thank you!
