I have a slope in my front yard and when it rains the water has run through some sections and has exposed some tree roots! I want to add some fill dirt to this slope so I can plant grass seed, but was wondering if this would injure the tree in any way by covering those roots!

Past about 4" added right at the trunk, it can start to hurt your tree. By all means cover exposed roots.

Maybe a raised bed flower bed around the base of the tree would prevent/slow erosion.
