Trees need regular watering anytime soils are dry.  During summer months that can be a couple times a week.

Why Adopt A Tree?

Adopt because you can help a young tree survive!  Brewing a Better Forest has over 10,000 trees available for adoption today!  Trees benefit from additional watering in the first few years after planting as they adapt to their new location.  Urban soils are often compacted and don't always hold a lot of water.  Boulevards are narrow with limited rooting space.  You can help!  If you love cool shade, oxygen, and beautiful tree lined streets become an adopter today.  You can help improve your neighborhood!

We ask that you water your adopted tree weekly when soils get dry.  We send out reminders so you know when your tree needs water. The next growing season you can adopt a tree again for more free brews.  You must have a Minneapolis address to participate.  You don't live or work in Minneapolis?  We happily accept monetary donations to help fund our program.  
Make a tax deductible donation here or Adopt-a-Tree Today!

When you adopt a tree you always get a brew for free!  "Water a tree, Brew for Free"
