We are encouraging all to water their tree wells outside their dwellings- Just take 2 empty milk gallon jugs. Cut one in half and throw the top away.

Cut slits (about 1 1/2″-2″)in sides of bottom half. Take 2nd empty milk jug and poke holes in the bottom and throw some gravel in the jug.

This will keep the jug from blowing away but allow the water to flow out gently.

Now slide the 1/2 jug-like pants! onto the 2nd- this will keep it from dripping while you leave your home.

When you get to your tree well just remove the ‘pants’!!
You can tie a string to both pcs. so they stay together.

Please try to get in the habit of doing this once a day and your tree will really be happy and you’ll know you’ve made the world a better place!!

Thank you!! and thanks Phil, for the gravel idea.

If you’re interested in getting help for your tree well, please leave us a message or you can also visit milliontrees.com or visit your friends at Greenbridge @ the Brooklyn Botanic Garden- We all want to help!!
