You buy a tee, we plant a tree Tees4Trees is taking a 2 year break, thank you for your support so far! Did you know that trees are the Earth's lungs?
Opposite from humans, trees take in carbon dioxide and emit clean oxygen into the air, bringing balance to human life. In order for Earth to continue to breath, this balance needs to stay true. My goal of creating Tees4Trees is to provide a fun and easy way for you to contribute. One, mature tree can create enough oxygen to support two people annually. (http://www.americanforests.org/discover-fore
sts/tree-facts/)
Each tree that you help plant will not only benefit yourself, but also contribute to our community. Not only do trees bring harmony to human life, they also provide other benefits. Trees can:
Reduce heating and cooling needs/costs
Protect against weather elements
Bring aesthetic value to our city
Help prevent soil erosion
Bring additional value to property
Clean the soil and air
At Tees4Trees we utilizes partners around Minneapolis to ensure each tree donated is planted in various parks and properties in the city. In order to create consistency for our partners we will wait to make a tree seedling purchase that coincides with their planting seasons: Spring and Fall. A couple months before planting season we will start sourcing trees from local, Minnesota growers. We provide 6-12'' seedlings protected by tubes in the ground for plantings. Benefits of utilizing tubes include: Protection for the seedlings from wind, weeds, and animals, mini greenhouses to promote straight and strong growth, ability to condition seedlings to Minnesota elements at young age while still allowing or tree survival, and an affordable way to support urban forestry. If you are interested in learning more about Tees4Trees please contact us at [email protected]. For information on the potential need for tree planting volunteers please visit the "Contact" tab at Tees4Treesminneapolis.com.

Looking to dispose of your Christmas Tree in an eco-friendly way?
Hennepin County residents can leave their Christmas Tree next to their garbage cans for free pickup on regular collection days.

Ramsey County residents can drop off their trees at three different yard waste disposal sites for free!

Another option is to put it out in your yard to serve as extra shelter for birds and animals until Spring, at which time you could cut up the branches and tree to use as mulch. You could even add popcorn, peanut butter, or fruit to the tree for animals during the cold, winter months!

Did you know it takes between 10-20 years of use for a fake Christmas Tree to become as eco-friendly of an option than a real Christmas Tree?? Something to think about at this time of year!
In recent times, many people have been switching from real Christmas trees to fake ones in an effort to be more environmentally friendly. But contrary to popular belief, fake trees are usually wors…
