PJ Tree-Planting Update In Oregon

Written by Phillip Jeffries | Aug 29, 2024 5:32:55 PM

We are grateful to collaborate with The Arbor Day Foundation (and you!) to make a positive impact on the environment. 

At Phillip Jeffries, we strive to leave this world more beautiful than before. One way we achieve this goal is by partnering with the Arbor Day Foundation. Their research proves that planting trees and supporting forests can help solve some of the most pressing issues facing people and our planet. These challenges include climate change, water quality and quantity, biodiversity health, human health and environmental inequalities. At Phillip Jeffries, we are passionate about planting a tree to every order. It's our way to give back and help make this world more beautiful.  Let's see how we are doing!

Bootleg Fire - Klamath Falls Basin
This year, we are thrilled to share that we completed the funding of a reforestation project in Oregon. We planted nearly 16,000 trees! This reforestation project included planting pine and fir trees in an area called the Klamath Falls Basin. This area was devastated by the Bootleg Fire which burned 413,765 acres of forest, making it is the third-largest fire in the history of Oregon. We are thrilled to share the impact report. 



Oregon Restoration
Along with providing a home for birds, big game, and small mammals, this project supported one of the largest fish restoration projects in U.S. history. Four dams on the Klamath River are set to be removed in the coming years, opening up 420 miles of habitat for salmon and the endangered sucker fish. Trees planted in the basin will greatly improve the river’s water quality and help these species thrive well into the future. Read more about our pledge here

Thank you for your support as we work toward planting 1 million trees with the Arbor Day Foundation. Through this partnership, every order you place plants a tree.
