I’ve learned a ridiculous amount of things about trees over the past five years, but its still the simplest things that I’m most amazed by.
The way trees function, not so much as solitary living things, but as members of a whole community. Talking to each other, nursing each other, via fungi. Playing host to all kinds of bugs and birds and creatures.
The way trees’ lives greatly outlast our own, growing slowly, dying slowly, and being there for so much history as it unfolds.
The way trees replenish the Earth and make it more livable for people.
Proud to be part of the journey to 50 Million Trees for Plant With Purpose. From seeing a community reforestation day for the first time in Tanzania, to celebrating the milestone with Burundian friends beneath a waterfall, to planting the first of thousands of trees in Mexico in honor of a dear friend.
Huge accomplishment.
