Suspending the walk over the soil
This walk is suspended above the soil. There is no contact between the bottom of the slab and the soil. The slabs rest on lateral supports and pilings. This allows the soil to be placed loosely in the 100'-long planting hole which promotes root growth. Good root growth translates into healthy trees as shown above.
