Why Adopt A Tree?
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. 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 and get free beer. Wow!
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.
