One-For One Tree Kit - American Sycamore

American Sycamore trees have beautifully camouflaged bark and grow to be big and showy. They grow 2 feet per year and once mature can get up to 100 ft tall and up to 80 ft wide. This tree is grown best in rich moist soil and should be planted at least 17M from your house. This is one of our favorite trees, not only for it's beauty and history, but because it reminds us of the city where Good Deeds began. The sheer image of a Sycamore tree brings us right back to the Upper East Side of Manhattan, Central Park, and the beloved Trinity Root 9/11 Memorial.

We need trees now more than ever. Trees purify the air by absorbing and storing harmful greenhouse gases, and releasing oxygen back into our atmosphere. They gather precious rainwater while their roots filter out pollutants and prevent erosion and flooding. They are precious home, shelter, sustenance, and habitat to thousands of living things: plants, mosses, animals, and insects. They calm our souls and inspire our imaginations. That's why we're on a mission to help reforest the future.

For every kit purchased, an additional donation is made by Modern Sprout and Good Deeds Market to plant a tree. The container is made in the USA and is 100% biodegradable.

The Movement: 18.7 million acres of forest are lost each year. Every tree planted helps offset this loss, forming a brighter future for all of us.
