๐Ÿ“š Learn About Trees

Six little lessons for big green hearts.

Leaves are tiny kitchens

Leaves use sunlight, water and air to cook food for the whole tree. This magic is called photosynthesis.

Trees make fresh air

One big tree can give enough oxygen for four people every single day. Take a deep breath and say thank you!

Roots are straws

Roots drink water from the soil and hold the ground tight so rain cannot wash it away.

Trees are homes

Birds, squirrels, bees and butterflies all live in trees. When you plant one, you build a tiny village.

Shade keeps us cool

Under a tree it can feel five degrees cooler. Trees are nature's air conditioners.

How to care for a seed

Soak, sow, water a little every day, and give it sunshine. Patience is the best fertiliser.

  • โœ… Water in the morning or evening, never in the hot afternoon sun.
  • โœ… Put a small fence of sticks around your sapling so animals do not nibble it.
  • โœ… Add dry leaves around the base to keep the soil cool and damp.
  • โœ… Talk to your plant. Really! Checking on it every day helps you spot problems early.
