Each tree has a name and role to play. Collect different kinds of trees, earn achievements, and maximize your daily step count. Each tree comes with its own fun facts, which makes Grove a great app to teach kids about different tree species. Learn about climate change and how trees can help sequester atmospheric carbon. Your grove has a carbon score that monitors how much virtual carbon your trees have absorbed. More Information Free — Grove is a free-to-play game that requires no purchase to play, or to complete.
