Why should we plant trees around the house
Introduction
Greetings to you all great Steemiains, today i welcome you to my blog to read and know why we need to plant trees around our houses, you know tree is a woody perennial plant that has stem it trunk, it grows to a considerable height, it has branches and most of them bears good fruits, they also serve as shelter and food to so many Birds.
They help to improve quality of our air by filtering harmful dust and pollutants such as ozone, carbon monoxide,sulfur dioxide, they give off oxygen that we need to breathe daily so can we say it is good to have tres around our house, just read more, it's free.
How many trees is surrounding your house?
They are a lot of benefits in planting trees around our house, so many of them serve as food and at the same time fight erosion which can damage our house by holding dirt, for example plantain or banana tree is good in fighting erosion.
Plant this where ever there is erosion in your house and see how you will eat from it and stop erosion at the same time
Tress also provided shade and can decrease summer energy bills and increase longevity, like this star fruits or 5 fingers fruit, you can sit under it when the weather is too hot.
it serves as food and shade at the same time
We need cleen oxygen to survive, trees has the ability to filter toxins out of soil and air around them, as Birds live on this trees, they eat the harmful insect s that lives on the tree, trees also increase mental health, For example coconut water which is good for mental health and headeche.
Coconut can serve you well and better when you have it around your home but you should not plant it too close to the house because it can grow very tall .
Another good reason why we should plant trees especially those that bear Fruits is because it helps our environment and it is also a good source of income, let us say you have all this trees that I will list now in your home or close to your house
- Mango tree
- Avacado peer tree
- Five fingers tree
- Coconut tree
- Cashew nuts tree
- Orange tree
- Lemon tree
Just to mention few and you know they bear Fruits, now tell me, will it provide food for the family or not, no wonder God created trees before Man so that it will give them shade, food and oxygen.
The best time to plant a was 10 years ago and the right time to plant a tree is now.
If you have not started planting trees, start now, plant anyone that you know it will will give all the things I mentioned above, our environment has been polluted in so many ways so trees are needed to purify the air we breath.
This is cool. I never knew planting of trees holds so much benefits as this. I see it as creating an unnecessary job for oneself .
Thank you for sharing, it time to plant trees . Lol
Hahahaha, you know anything that have advantage has its own disadvantage, if have space please Plant
No problem ma. Smiles
Hi @ijelady,
Glad to read your post once more.You are very correct, afforestation is very good inorder to improve the flow of oxygen around the house.This is true given the fact that plants take in carbon iv oxide(waste for humans) and give out oxygen (useful for humans).
The only problem with having plenty trees is that it could attract snakes and other reptiles.The trees could also fall and destroy the house.
Yes, you are correct that is why I advise not to plant it too close to the house, anything that has advantage must have disadvantage too to balance the--------complete it
Although planting of trees are useful to human and it's environment in so many ways as already relates here . But , some people would love to plant trees , fruits ones . But it fit just be space factor . Either ways we should often encouraging it , it good for our being .
Yes space may be the factor but what is important is to know the Imo of it

No wonder God made trees that bear's Fruits before Man. Thank you @ijekady for sharing the benefits of fruits to us. Where am residing now, I have papaya and plantains around me. Hope those ones are good too?
If you don't have enough space for three, you can make garden, you can plant beautiful flowers
Trees are very important in the ecosystem and they help with clean air. Thanks for sharing.
Do you have them enough in your environment?
Not much, just a few.
So beautiful
I have learnt from this post. There is this area that erosion has dogged a big hole close to my house, i will plant banana or plantain tree there. From your tutorial, it will quench. Thanks. @ijelady
Yes ooo, tree planting is very important, else we may not see fruits to eat, our bodies need fruits to stay balanced.
Like during governor Rochas Okorocha's tenure as governor of Imo state, their greetings to each other turned to " ikuola nkwu" to show how needful planting of trees are. Thanks.
For sure, it will provide food in such compound and home.
It's a great and beautiful things to plant trees or ornamental plants. Environment of trees is always cold and shaded. Would you live your compound to be filled with food trees? Thanks for sharing ma.
I will love my compound to be filled with trees that bear good fruits
