Since the dawn of time, trees have nurtured us with fresh air, clean water, an abundance of food, and shelter from the elements.
They have ensured the
continuance of our beautiful natural world and the wildlife within it.
They have created the perfect environment for us to not only grow and survive, but
to thrive.
Lord of the Trees supports the land-use sector on global reforestation and ecosystem restoration projects, and uses precision drone technology, AI, and robots to replant seedpods into deforested areas worldwide.
Forests show us that something powerful and enduring can grow from the tiniest seeds. At Lord of the Trees, it is our mission to rebuild ecosystems and to partner with the land-use sector to establish vital, functioning forests and landscapes, right down to the fungi. Together, we ensure that tiny seeds will grow into something great.
We combine our love of nature and technology with a collaborative spirit. We are energized by change and know that supporting those who work the land – whether in a public, private, or non-profit capacity – we can create more sustainable outcomes.
The Earth’s forests are suffering from unprecedented levels of deforestation. 18.7 million acres of our forests are lost per year* (that’s the equivalent of 27 soccer fields per minute!), and about half of the world’s tropical forests have now been cleared.
As a result, our wildlife, ecosystems, weather patterns, water cycles, and climate are being measurably and significantly impacted.
It is our mission to break this cycle of destruction and enable the land-use sector to support our natural infrastructure by promoting new life in the world’s deforested areas.

Lord of the Trees is inspired by a relentless desire to use tech for good, meaningful relationships with local and Indigenous communities, and – of course! – David Attenborough.

As part of our 2022 roadmap, we’ve initiated the process of becoming a Certified B Corporation and plan to participate in the B Economy. Certification showcases our business and our leadership as a force of good, making a positive impact across our workers, customers, suppliers, community, and the environment.
With our proprietary precision planting drone technology — developed by a team of award-winning industrial designers — and with the help of the global community, we can successfully revegetate and reforest the world’s most affected areas at a large scale and ensure the survival of the trees of tomorrow.
TO ACHIEVE OUR GOAL OF PLANTING MILLIONS OF TREES AROUND THE WORLD TO CREATE NEW FORESTS AND REPLANT OTHERS, WE WORK CLOSELY WITH A WIDE RANGE OF ORGANISATIONS.
FROM GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, NGOS AND ENVIRONMENTAL GROUPS TO MINING CORPORATIONS AND AGRICULTURAL LANDOWNERS, WE COLLABORATE TO PROVIDE INDUSTRY-BEST SOLUTIONS TO PROTECT AND PRESERVE OUR NATURAL WORLD.
Lord of the Trees currently supports three primary land-use sectors : responsible governance, agriculture – both corporate and family farms – and the mining industry.

We can help you strengthen your reforestation efforts, achieve decarbonization goals with carbon offsets, and leave an environmental legacy that will improve your communities over time. We will work with you to create stronger regrowth and a higher planting survival rate in deforested areas.
We can help you reduce your planting costs and increase sustainability. Our groundbreaking drone technology will boost your business’ yields by slashing planting costs, improving crop output, reduce the need for pesticides, and help you realistically achieve more sustainable farming.
We can help accelerate the restoration of your mining sites, quickly and efficiently boosting soil health, revegetating and restoring it to a robust, healthy ecosystem, while preserving surrounding vegetation for a fraction of the cost associated with planting by hand.
We acknowledge the First Nations Peoples around the world and their ongoing cultures, and connections to their lands and waters.We pay our respects to the Traditional Custodians of all the lands across which we travel, work and live.
