Jouko Karkkainen, best known for his textured plywood products and large-scale installations, has taken a compact turn with a positive eco-impact. Tree Seedlings are containers made of curly birch, pine, alder, spruce or aspen. Each cube is made from the wood of the same tree that the contained seed will grow into. The entire cube is buried, eventually rotting and exposing the seed to the vital elements necessary for growth.

But it's not really eco, considering that beautiful wood has to be chopped up first to form these cubes.
Pick up a fallen branch, attached a seed to it. A free and easy method.
