Our latest addition, The
TREE BLOCKS® Math
Kit
is fun
and allows your child to grasp all mathematical principals up
to the level of algebra.
Our vision is to provide fun and learning
oriented toys produced in a socially and ecologically
responsible way.
We harm no living tree to produce
TREE BLOCKS®
We use the discards of
managed paper forests...
Apple cherry & hazelnut are orchard trees.
We identify
abandoned or end of productive cycle plots and contact the
farmers. We
come in to push the old trees over, thereby
removing the roots. Then we purchase the wood and haul it away
to process. This leaves the farmer clean soil and seed money,
so he can be back into production. We get the blocks and
bridges from this source.
Elder is a larger soft wood
tree used for the big disks. They plant in managed forests on a
50CM grid. A few years go by and they cut every other tree,
creating a 1 M grid. A few more years go by and they cut every
other again to leave a 2 Meter grid, ideal for use of soil to
maximize pulp. Also, the growing method leaves straight tall
tree with minimal low branches, ideal to process. The "every
others" that are cut are used by us. Otherwise they would be
piled and burned; too small to make into pulp.
Real wooden toys,
blocks,
tree houses, dollhouses, and wooden
furniture that look like wood. Most others are so
processed that they may as well be plastic!

TREE
BLOCKS®
unique shapes fascinate children and adults alike because
they reveal the infinite complexity of nature.
Most objects we touch are mass-produced and uniform.
TREE
BLOCKS®
allow us to feel and revere nature.
TREE
BLOCKS®
blend nature's
elegance and the ingenuity of humankind. Precise
incremental lengths allow them to serve as a math learning
tool. The subtle forms promote spatial reasoning, problem
solving and motor skills.
