Send a Holiday Card and Help Plant a Tree

America is home to a stunning diversity of forests. Whether you live in the countryside, the city, by the beach, or in the mountains, we’re all connected to these breathtaking landscapes. It’s up to all of us to preserve these forests for generations to come, and our help is needed now more than ever.

Over one million acres of our national forests are in need of reforestation. From wildfires and ice storms to invasive species and climate change, natural disasters and immediate threats are jeopardizing trees, the very things that make our forests so wonderful.

For the ninth consecutive year, Greenvelope is honored to help support the National Forest Foundation through our annual holiday Plant a Tree campaign. 

Starting this October, every Greenvelope purchase made through December 25th will plant a tree. That’s right – every purchase. 

Curious how much of an impact you can have? Here’s how mighty a single tree can be:

• One large tree can provide a day’s supply of oxygen for up to four people.
• During one year, a mature tree will absorb more than 48 pounds of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen in exchange.
• The net cooling effect of a young, healthy tree is equivalent to ten room-size air conditioners operating 20 hours a day.
• A single tree provides vital wildlife habitat.

If you’re curious how you can get involved, it’s easy! Instead of sending paper for those holiday greetings or party invites, save paper and plant a tree by choosing Greenvelope this year. You can get started browsing our 2026 Holiday Collection here, or keep scrolling for some of our top designs of the season for a little inspiration.

Now more than ever, we are honored to be able to help you connect with loved ones near and far, and we sincerely thank you for helping support the National Forest Foundation’s mission. So get ready to share those cute Christmas photos, holiday wishes, and year-end milestones with our 2026 Holiday Card Collection, or gather your nearest and dearest with our Holiday Party Invitations.
