leaf litter

Benefits of Trees - 10: Trees help the soil

When trees drop leaves, twigs, and other material to the ground, it piles up. This material is called leaf litter.
Humus is the dark, organic material that forms in soil when this plant and animal matter decays.
Humus contains many useful nutrients for healthy soil, it improves soil structure and increases water retention.

only made it a fortnight with the trees - sh*t happens hahahahaha
