World Tree grows Paulownia hardwood through regenerative forestry in partnership with farmers across the Americas.
The world's commercially important hardwoods are nearing commercial extinction because they take decades to mature while global timber demand is projected to quadruple by 2050, and overharvesting and climate pressure squeeze supply further.
World Tree grows Paulownia hardwood through regenerative forestry on degraded land in partnership with farmers, running the full cycle from investor-funded planting through farmer stewardship to lumber sold to manufacturers.
It grows Paulownia specifically because it is one of the fastest-growing hardwoods, regrows from the stump without replanting, and is naturally fire resistant (independently tested to Class A / ASTM E84); it also points to over a decade of operating history with 8,000+ acres planted and 375+ farm partnerships as verified field data.
World Tree is a female-founded, eco-focused company that has partnered with over 300 farmers to plant fast-growing Empress Splendor hardwood trees on more than 6,000 acres across five countries; it is led by CEO Doug Willmore.
