TreeTwist
TreeTwist Ltd was established to help everyday individuals and families do something positive to help combat climate change by making it easy to plant a tree. We are different because not only do we plant the tree, we acknowledge the purchase by giving a TreeTwist to act as a talisman and a reminder of the tree.
The trees are planted by TreeTwist partners, Trees for Life in the Caledonian Forest in the North West Highlands of Scotland. Trees for Life are multi award-winning and recognised as world experts in reforestation.
Put simply, every TreeTwist represents a tree
We have managed to create an entirely UK based project: the TreeTwists are designed and made in the UK and the trees planted in the UK.
Our current TreeTwists are designed by Ingrid Tait of Tait & Style, and handmade largely by outworkers in the Shetland and Orkney Islands. The collection includes woollen scarves, bracelets and clips each with leaves, bobbles flowers or hearts. Colours vary from earthy and masculine to the most vivid shades. The scarves in particular have never been seen before – metre long tubes of wool.
As a gift purchase, a TreeTwist is the ultimate present; unique, special, fun, beautiful, lasting, giving to the planet…
You do not need to be a committed environmentalist or totally green to buy a TreeTwist. In buying a TreeTwist you have done something good for the planet, you have made a small contribution and you have also given (or have) a beautiful something. TreeTwist allows you to do something good for the world without compromise to style and beauty. Buying a TreeTwist is not about doing something worthy and dull, it is about celebrating our planet and doing something good for it.
