Garden Guardian supports the Plant-for-the-Planet organization.

Climate change affects us all, and individual change is not the solution. For every sale of Garden Guardian, we will donate $0.20 CAD to the Plant-for-the-Planet organization. Although Garden Guardian is a small game, we hope that over time we can help to plant thousands of trees through this initiative, and we hope we can encourage other game developers and publishers to consider joining in to pledge financial support to vital environmental, social, and communal efforts.
