NATURAL TREE CARE - Boosting Tree Health Naturally in Olympia, WA

Boosting Tree Health Naturally in Olympia, WA

In the lush, rain-soaked landscapes of Olympia and the greater Pacific Northwest, trees are a defining feature of our environment. From towering Douglas firs to vibrant maples, our trees do more than beautify — they cool our homes, purify our air, and create vital habitats for wildlife. However, even in our naturally rich region, trees benefit from a little extra care. One of the best natural ways to boost tree health is by using micronutrients and trace minerals. We also rely on compost tea, kelp, and natural bio-fungicides. Our natural tree spray schedules are also included in our summer insect control programs. 

What is Kelp, and Why Use It?

Kelp is a type of large seaweed that thrives in cold, nutrient-dense ocean waters — the very same waters that line our Pacific Northwest coast. When harvested sustainably and processed into liquid or powdered form, kelp becomes a powerful, organic fertilizer packed with natural plant-growth hormones, trace minerals, and beneficial compounds.

Unlike synthetic fertilizers, kelp doesn't overload soil with nitrogen or phosphorus. Instead, it strengthens plants from the inside out, helping them manage stress, resist disease, and grow deeper, stronger roots.

Benefits of Compost Tea, Natural Bio-Fungicides for Tree Health in the PNW

  1. Improved Root Development
    Compost tea and kelp stimulate root growth through natural hormones like cytokinins and auxins, which are especially helpful when transplanting young trees or revitalizing struggling ones.

  2. Disease Resistance
    The Pacific Northwest's damp climate can lead to fungal and bacterial issues. Kelp boosts a tree's natural immunity, helping it fend off problems like root rot or leaf spot without chemical intervention.

  3. Drought and Stress Tolerance
    While Olympia sees plenty of rain, our summers can get dry. Trees treated with kelp and natural bio-fungicides tend to tolerate drought and temperature swings better, thanks to enhanced water retention and nutrient uptake.

  4. Rich Micronutrients for Long-Term Vitality
    Our native soils can sometimes be deficient in essential trace minerals. Natural products like kelp contain over 70 minerals and enzymes, enriching the soil and supporting balanced, healthy growth over time.

  5. Soil Health and Microbial Life
    Our compost tea feeds the beneficial microbes in the soil, which in turn support healthier trees. A thriving soil ecosystem is one of the most important foundations for long-term tree health.

In Olympia and surrounding areas, our products are easy to apply and safe for both ornamental and native trees:
