What is Agroforestry?
Agroforestry is a way of planting crops and trees together to improve social, economic, and environmental benefits. Agroforestry “systems” help farmers restore water and nutrients to their soil, increase the production of food, and pull carbon out of the atmosphere.
Supporting Agroforestry Projects
We team up with community organizations around the world to support projects that improve the environment and community livelihoods. Read real Grow Ahead stories and help us invest in a climate-resilient future.
