Million Tree Project Update

Three years ago we pledged to plant a million tress reviving the drying areas across India. Till now, 1,84,735 trees have been planted. This year, our focus was on Gooty, the second driest area in India. In 2023, we planted 80,180 saplings over 25 hectares of land here.

We work with partner organizations to select saplings, conduct soil testing, and encourage organic farming. This helps the farmers and we enjoy working with local communities.

Our vision is to establish a self-sustainable forestry model, creating jobs, income and prosperity for the community. Our pledge to plant a million trees is coming true.

We are committed to a greener future. Our transformation starts from home.

The Million Tree Project

Started in 2020, Taratec, along with the associate companies and brands, has jointly pledged to work with responsible agencies to plant and nurture one million trees in denuded areas of India over 10 years. In the first phase we have worked with ISHA Foundation and their project Cauvery Calling, which aims to save the basin of the beautiful River Cauvery that is rapidly drying. We aim to support other similar projects.

We make these contributions in the name of our business partners, our customers, and our staff – to whom we owe our success and immeasurable gratitude.

We have planted 104,555 trees so far.
