How it works

Step 1: Secure rainforest and link it to Squares

We secure threatened rainforest with trusted partners. The land is divided into Squares, each connected to a real piece of rainforest you can own.

Step 2: Your Square funds expert protection

When you buy a Square, you support our trusted partner C4 in protecting and restoring the land. This ensures it stays safe for 10 years.

Step 3: Growing Square by Square

Surplus is reinvested to secure more rainforest, so every Square you buy helps grow a lasting network of protected land.

Frequently asked questions

Square by Square secures at-risk rainforest land in Australia, taking it off the market so it can never be cut down, cleared, or developed.

Once secured, the land is protected and restored by experienced conservation partners, and every Square sold funds the purchase of more rainforest to save.
