Donor gifts, awards and deal toys from meaningful trees

When a beloved campus or city tree comes down, its wood can become gifts that carry its story to donors, graduates and partners.

Plan your gifts

What we make

Keepsakes with a provenance

Donor gifts & awards

Honor donors and milestones with keepsakes cut from a tree your community knows.

Deal toys

Commemorate a closing with a one-of-a-kind piece of salvaged wood.

Disc prints

Tree ring prints that capture the life of a single tree.

Ring bowls

At Miss Porter’s School we turned a beloved beech into 100 ring bowls for the graduating class.

How it works

From campus tree to treasured gift

STEP 01
A meaningful tree
A campus, civic or company tree comes down to weather, disease or development.
STEP 02
Salvage & mill
We salvage the logs and mill and dry the wood at our East Rock Park mill.
STEP 03
Design the gift
We design bowls, awards, prints or deal toys to suit your event and budget.
STEP 04
Deliver the story
Each piece carries the story of the tree it came from.
