Rain Bird Supports Fire Reforestation Efforts

On July 17, Trees for Mt. Lemmon planted approximately 400 ponderosa pine and Douglas fir seedlings in efforts to reforest private land damaged in last summer?EUR??,,????'???s Aspen Fire near Tucson. Each tree was planted with two one-quart cartons of Rain Bird irrigation supplement. Rain Bird has donated 800 quarts of the supplement, a time-released water in gel form that aids in establishing native plant material where permanent irrigation is not available. Its use increases survival rates of transplants by providing continuous moisture for an extended period of time. Trees for Mt. Lemmon will also plant an additional 400 trees that will be watered by permanent irrigation. ?EUR??,,????'??We?EUR??,,????'???re happy to be able to play a role in the reforestation efforts at Mt. Lemmon,?EUR??,,????'?? said Gurmeet Singh, Rain Bird product manager. ?EUR??,,????'??It?EUR??,,????'???s very gratifying to be able to reach out to our local community.?EUR??,,????'??
