The Bulky Bears of Mamorumori forest often work with wooden materials. They see and talk to Treeploms daily. At one point they figured out: why not have a token of appreciation for them? So they came up with a plan to design little accessoires for them. With left-over wood they made the wooden pins: representing each season as a treeplom.

Unlike ploms most treeploms are bigger and have at least three separate branches. Some registered treeploms are over three times taller than a plom! Their base is often similar to a plom, hence the name 'treeplom'. Normal ploms are named after the season they grew up in. Treeploms however will always keep the name 'treeplom'. Some suggest that every plom can turn into a treeplom. But no research has proven this theory yet. Unlike a plom most treeploms have a hard time moving around. They tend to stay in groups and often stay around the same spot throughout the year. A treeplom group often consist of at least four members. The biggest group of treeploms found in Mamorumori forest consisted of twenty-five members. Treeploms protect Mamorumori residents against any type of weather. They provide shadow during the hot summers, they provide shelter against rain and when they are on a mountain side the treeploms catch the rain that falls down the mountain to prevent from overflowing the Mamorumori forest. Treeploms catch substances in the air that are toxic to many residents and turn this into their meals. Some treeploms wash themselves with water that arrives in Mamorumori forest. The leftover water is clean water the other residents can then use for their own. Plum Rabbits take care of treeploms just like ploms, but treeploms tend to need less attention as they are more self-reliant. 

By getting this wooden pin you are adopting a little guardian to be on your side. Depending on which season you are getting; you should be properly blessed by the seasonal residents of Mamorumori forest. At the same time you are supporting the maintenance of the forest. Thank you. :)

The wooden pin is printed on one side. The treeplom is approx 4cm x 3cm (1.57"x1.18"). Each pin comes with a green rubber stopper at the bag to protect the wearer. The drawing is handmade by the founder Rabbit.
