May 7, 2025

Bozeman, MT (May 7, 2025) /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ Since its founding in 2007 Oboz Footwear has planted over 6 million trees as part of its One More Tree Program. Its new partnership with veritree expands this program to now include verified tracking of individual plantings and adds Oregon and British Columbia to its planting locations.

“We’ve been planting trees since our inception and it’s a core part of our mission to care for and protect places where we love exploring, discovering, and hiking,” said Amy Beck, Oboz president. “Working with veritree allows us to tell a more data-driven story, while also reinforcing our B Corp commitment to be the best for people and the planet.”

veritree’s platform uses modern technology to track each individual tree planting while providing real-time insights. Through on the ground efforts they can monitor the environmental progress and the benefits of the reforestation efforts. Their online portal allows partners and consumers to review the program’s progress and explore its impact.

Oboz will continue to work with its original tree planting partner, the regenerative agroforestry nonprofit Trees for the Future (TREES). TREES conducts most of its planting in grassroots projects in East and West African countries using the Forest Garden Approach. Trees planted through Oboz’s partnership with TREES are also reflected in its veritree impact portal.
