The NIKIN Tree Planting Day

Tree Planting Day 2021

Tree by Tree to a greener world.

NIKIN plants one tree for every product sold. The partner organization One Tree Planted plants these trees worldwide wherever they are urgently needed. But NIKIN also wants to give something back to nature in Switzerland. Every year, NIKIN therefore organizes one or more Tree Planting Days in Switzerland. The aim of these events is to reforest forest that has previously disappeared. Reasons for the disappeared forest can be bark beetles or natural events such as landslides.

2020 threw a wrench in our plans – as it did for so many others – and we unfortunately had to cancel all planned Tree Planting Days. But this year we want to do everything we can so that we can plant trees in our area again. That's why we are organizing the first online Tree Planting Day.

The first Online Tree Planting Day in NIKIN history will take place on Sunday, March 21, 2021, which is the International Forest Day.

Make the world a little greener with your tree.

We would have loved to dig, plant, talk and enjoy a wonderful day with you in the forest. But we're making the best of the current situation. With the online Tree Planting Day, you can plant a tree despite adverse circumstances. How does it work? We send your tree to your home and you plant it in your garden. Of course, we are aware that your garden does not necessarily need reforestation. However, we would like to firstly draw attention to the issue of planting trees. And secondly, to put a little smile on your face during these times.

What do you need to participate?  

• The most important thing: You need a garden and the consent of the garden owner that you can plant the tree. Please do not plant the tree in a wooded area that you do not own – it is forbidden.
• If you do not have a garden, ask your neighbors, relatives or friends. Maybe you will find someone who would be happy to receive a tree.
• We deliver to Bayern or Baden-Württemberg.
• You don't need any previous knowledge. We will give you all the information about where and how to plant the tree after your registration.
• If you would like to participate, register for the online Tree Planting Day by February 28.
• The event is free of charge. Also, as with any physical Tree Planting Day, you will receive a small thank you gift for your participation.
• When you have planted your tree, we would be happy to receive a photo or a short video of you.
• The number of participants is limited. First come, first serve.
