Yes, TreePans were built to be able to withstand the use of weed eaters against the beveled edge to better protect trees than current industry solutions.

We suggest you leave TreePans on your tree to aid in the establishment for 3 years.
When speaking with arborists and industry professionals, 3 years is most common for the amount of time a tree may need additional watering or support!

Yes, TreePans have the ability to expand with the growth of the tree.
That being said, it is our suggestion that as you work, mow, and check on your trees, ensure that the doors have not been blocked by any grass, twigs, or other materials that could stop its movement.

No,
TreePans are meant to be used year round. You can remove TreePans when you feel your tree is established, or you have a new tree you’d like to support!

If you are interested in slowly disseminating water to the root system, we have developed a water reservoir that holds water and captures rainfall to disseminate over 5 gallons of water to the root system of trees! ​
If interested in this adaptation please reach out to a team member.

Many organic farmers are turning to TreePans to eliminate weed growth around their trees and berries. With the use of TreePans, the dome design blocks sunlight around the base of your plant eliminating competition for water from grass and weeds.

Yes!

TreePans have been field tested and perform great through all seasons, that means no more removing and replacing tree care products with the change in seasons.

ALL TREES!

TreePans work with the majority of trees planted as long as they are planted correctly with caliper ranging from 1 inch in diameter up to 1 foot. Again, TreePans were designed to benefit early establishing trees – up to the first 5 years after planting.

TreePans were designed to be assembled with no tools. We envisioned our users being students, volunteers, and others. We didn’t want our users to have to fumble with screws, nuts, or any type of fasteners. TreePans connect by aligning tongue and groove and snaps together in seconds.
You can find assembly instructions on our download page.

In the same fashion as you assemble TreePans, no tools are required. Simply unsnap the 4 sections from each other and move on to the next tree planting!

TreePans were created to replace the need and use of mulch. To allow all the water to make its way to the root zone of the tree and not absorbed into mulch.
