This process is for trees that are typically planted too deep or have excess debris built up on the root flares. Girdling roots and root decay can be consequences if no action is taken.

π The Benefits of Rainwater for Trees π
Hello, Tree Stewards! Today, we're excited to talk about one of nature's most precious resources: rainwater. Using rainwater for your trees not only supports their health but also promotes a more sustainable environment.
π± Benefits of Rainwater for Trees:
- Nutrient-Rich: Rainwater is free of the salts, chemicals, and additives found in tap water, providing pure hydration that trees love.
- pH Balanced: It naturally has a balanced pH, which is ideal for tree health and soil quality.
- Free and Sustainable: Using rainwater reduces your water bill and conserves municipal water supplies, making it a cost-effective and eco-friendly choice.
- Reduces Soil Erosion: Rainwater helps maintain soil moisture levels and reduces the risk of soil erosion around tree roots.
π How to Make the Most of Rainwater:
- Rain Barrels: Install rain barrels to collect and store rainwater from your roof. This stored water can be used during dry spells.
- Proper Drainage: Ensure your landscape has proper drainage to direct rainwater to tree roots where it's most needed.
- Mulching: Apply mulch around the base of trees to retain moisture and reduce water evaporation, making the most of every drop of rain.
By harnessing the power of rainwater, we contribute to healthier trees and a greener planet. Let's embrace this natural resource and give our trees the best care possible!

My name is Zachary Clark and I am the owner of Environmental Advantage L.L.C. In 2019, my wife Tori and I took the leap of faith to start a business that directly impacts, my biggest interests, the natural environment and human life. A little bit about my environmental background: I graduated from St. Cloud State University in 2014 with a Bachelor of Science, majoring in Environmental Studies. I currently spend my free time studying arboriculture and horticulture. I also take part in the University of Minnesota Extension Master Gardener Volunteer program (Crow Wing County) as an intern for 2020. With more certifications and education to come, my goal is to become a resource to all that I encounter when it comes to tree and plant health. We are so excited to offer our beautiful Central Minnesota communities wonderful environmental services starting from the ground up. Stay tuned into Environmental Advantage L.L.C. as new services will be rolling out.
