The Waterboxx is installed around a newly planted tree, and remains in place for a year or more, until the sapling is established. Caitlin Cornwall from the Sonoma Ecology Center explains what goes on during that time.

It was just about a year ago that Sonoma County Regional Parks first field-tested the Waterboxx.  Park planner Karen Davis-Brown recalls that they choose an especially challenging spot for that test.

The video below, produced by Hoff's company, Groasis, explains the workings of the Waterboxx in animated detail.
