Building a sustainable world
We’ve helped plant over 1000 trees. We usually plant 1 tree per order, over the Green Friday period we’ll plant 3 trees per order.
Together, our impact goes way beyond tree planting when you place an order with Pace over Green Friday. Our longstanding partner Ecologi works with farmers in; Madagascar, Kenya, Mozambique, Senegal, Ethopia, Uganda, Tanzania and many more. We’re all helping to bring back life to land they’ve lost.
By planting Forest Gardens, farmers can rebuild entire ecosystems that provide nutrition and income for their communities for generations to come.
Funding directly supports climate projects all over the world from Geothermal power production in West Java, Indonesia to Protecting and restoring forests in Papua New Guinea.
All year round when you place an order, Pace will pay for one tree to be planted. Over the Green Friday period we're increasing that to 3 trees planted for every order placed

Meet Our Partner
When you place and order, Pace fund tree planting through Ecologi, so this means you’re supporting a range of incredible reforestation and ecosystem restoration projects. Ecologi’s method of distributing the funding they receive means the positive impact of our community is being felt all around the world.
Plant & Protect is a core part of Pace Cycles purpose. It's a simple, direct and real way for our community to give back. Plant & Protect isn’t the answer to everything, but we’re passionate about trees, how vital they are for healthy people and a healthy planet. The mountain bike industry spends alot of time in the forest riding bikes, it's only natural for us to give back.
We’ll keep on planting trees & protecting rainforests today, tomorrow and the next day, not just on Green Friday as we have done for many years now"

Current Project:
Planting forest gardens in Tanzania
Tanzania’s natural resources are under threat and approximately only one third of the country’s environment is formally protected. Due to agricultural expansion and increased urbanisation, it’s estimated that Tanzania has lost at least one-third of its ecosystems and biodiversity hosted within forests and wooded areas over the past few decades. In addition, overexploitation, land degradation, and deforestation are some of the key drivers amplifying these issues. It is therefore vital that measures be taken to address the threats to biodiversity in Tanzania, and to aid in reforestation efforts.
Farmers enrolled in the Iringa CDI3 Forest Gardens program planted a huge 600,000 trees in January, and another 603,000 in February – this means over two thirds of the trees for this project have been planted in just 2 months!
Farmers are already seeing the benefits of their Forest Gardens, which continue to produce fruits and vegetables despite low rainfall. This shows how important these projects are for the health and wellbeing of the farmers and their families.
Get involved
Together we are stronger, that’s why we believe in collective action. If you don't have the need to buy from us, have a read on the Ecologi website here to learn about what they are giving back. If you sign up using the link below, Ecologi plant 5 trees in Pace forest as a thank you!
