# IRL tree verification system

Proof of Shade is more than just staking for yield. Every digital tree on your farm represents a real tree planted and verified through a fully open system. This is how your farm makes real impact.

When you buy farms, plant seeds, or upgrade, the funds flow directly into a public Solana donation wallet linked to One Tree Planted, our trusted partner. One Tree Planted is an official partner of the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, a global mission to restore 350 million hectares of degraded land by 2030. Learn more at [decadeonrestoration.org](https://www.decadeonrestoration.org/).

Every dollar donated equals one real tree planted. It’s fully transparent. You can check every transaction yourself on Solana. No hidden middlemen, no empty claims — every player can verify the impact.

One Tree Planted is a verified 93% charity on Charity Navigator. Read their full score and details [here](https://www.charitynavigator.org/ein/464664562). If you ever want to donate directly, you can also use their crypto donation page [here](https://onetreeplanted.org/pages/donate-crypto?srsltid=AfmBOoo1sgCcndJ_mDZFEJhJ82-bmrTvcaXi0rFl9DIayPzSus8OA1F6).\\

As you farm and stake, your impact is tracked by a live tree counter that shows exactly how many trees have been planted by the AFC community so far. Every tree is proof that crypto can heal — not just trade.

Plant, verify, repeat. This is Proof of Shade working exactly as the Truth Terminal intended.
