A real asset program backed by over a decade of field operations, eight thousand planted acres, and a commercial lumber pipeline that shipped its first full truckload in 2026.
The Eco-Tree Program is how accredited investors back a specific crop of paulownia. Each year we open a new series that funds that year's planting; your participation follows that exact crop from the ground to the sale of its lumber, and returns are tied to that harvest, not to a fund or a portfolio.
01
The series is funded
Accredited investors fund the year's planting through the Eco-Tree Program.
02
We plant
Lab propagated trees from our exclusive cultivar collection go to carefully screened farms.
03
Farmers grow
Farmers provide land and care under long term agreements, with our agronomists alongside them.
04
We harvest and sell
In eight to twelve years we handle harvest, milling, grading, and the sale of the lumber.
The first harvest begins in 2026.
The first Eco-Tree Program harvest is scheduled for late 2026. The pipeline that turns trees into revenue is already running, with the first full truckload of paulownia lumber shipped to a signed buyer in March 2026.

Capital comes back first.
When a crop is harvested and sold, investors receive a return of their invested capital before any profits are shared. Remaining profits are then split three ways.

What you can hold in your hands.
This is a physical crop, and we report on it like one.
01
Annual tree series reports
Survival, growth, and farm level detail for your series, every year.
02
Independent verification
Growth and carbon outcomes on our farms are studied by third parties, including Ostrom Climate.
03
Distributions at harvest
Capital back first, then your share of profits as the crop is harvested and sold.
Why now?
01
Demand outpaces supply
Global demand for wood products is projected to quadruple by 2050, even as traditional hardwood supply keeps shrinking.
02
Class A by code
California's wildland code now mandates Class A materials in fire hazard zones.
03
Degraded land only
Every farm sits on unforested land, so outcomes are net additional.
04
The pipeline is live
Signed buyers, repeat customers, and lumber already moving to market.
