The findings indicate that planting trees in homes is influenced by many people to beautify the compound, plants are planted for shade, food, and medication and hold soils from getting washed away, especially in the sloppy areas (An example is hilly places in Bushenyi district kyabugimbi sub-county kajunju village where there are various hills after leveling the compound you need to plant trees and grass to hold soils from being washed away by rainwater which was observed by the researcher physically). Conclusion: The study concluded that planting trees in homes indirectly reduces heat in these homes because of the winds that gain entry into the small openings of the houses we live in. And it was observed that trees give off oxygen that we need to breathe. Negatively planting trees around homes, roots affect the houses more especially because they cause cracks, trees hide mosquitoes which cause malaria and others bring snakes which are dangerous to human life. Recommendation: It was recommended that planting trees around our homes should be done by everyone to protect the environment and save more lives because of its various benefits, as shown above.
