Here you are, a squirrel on a mission to stock up for winter, burying acorns and other nuts wherever you can. But your memory is fuzzy because, well, you’re a squirrel. So what happens when you can’t recall every hiding place? Your snacks grow into trees. Thanks, absent-minded cutie. You just helped grow a forest.

For Port Aransas local Julie Blackwood, planting a tree is a small but powerful step toward rebuilding after Hurricane Harvey. When Hurricane Harvey battered the Texas Gulf Coast in 2017, winds over 130 miles per hour toppled ancient trees and left communities in shambles. While the immediate focus after a disaster is rightly on first responders and personal safety, restoring lost tree canopy plays a vital role in long-term recovery. When communities are ready to rebuild, replanting trees is a powerful step toward renewal. Since 2018, we’ve supported Gulf Coast communities in recovering from Hurricane Harvey, helping plant more than 7,000 trees in Rockport and Port Aransas alone. And the recovery continues: canopy restoration can take decades after a hurricane as devastating as Harvey. Just because a disaster leaves the headlines doesn’t mean the work is over. Learn more about our Hurricane Harvey recovery work at the link in our bio.

Giant sequoias take their name seriously. The tallest one stands at 316.2 feet, dwarfing popular landmarks like the Statue of Liberty, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and the Taj Mahal. Let’s not even mention how they tower over us mere humans. But it doesn’t just shadow them in size, but in age as well, with an approximate 2,000+ trips around the sun. This tree isn’t just nature’s monument. It’s a reminder of the grandeur, resilience, and maturity of the great outdoors. Awe is the only appropriate response here. If you’ve visited a giant sequoia park, let us know where and how you felt among them in the comments.

Starting over is never easy. Not after you lost everything. Not when your family mementos and memories have been reduced to ash. Not when your street, neighborhood, and community become unrecognizable. But that’s what Pamela Reader, her husband, and two daughters did. In the days and months that followed the fire that tore through Lahaina, the residents showed up for each other. The Reader family was one of the first to secure permits to break ground and rebuild. And on the second anniversary of the fires, the community attended a tree distribution to help replant the trees that shaped their neighborhood. The Reader family left with four trees: lemon, tangerine, avocado, and a prized puakenikeni, which they planted where their daughters’ treehouse once stood. Pamela and her family are determined to help shape Lahaina’s future, eager to restore and heal. And the trees they planted are bringing them home.

For twin sisters Lu and Mona Patterson, Altadena has always been home. And trees were a big part of what made their community feel that way. After the Eaton Fire, thousands of those trees were lost. Now, the Pattersons are helping their community rebuild through trees and stories to restore a sense of connection, identity, and being rooted there. Read the Patterson sisters’ story and how on-the-ground partners like them are helping Altadena grow forward through trees. Find the full story at https://bit.ly/3WwTJ4M

Wait, what are those trees? Wild, beautiful, and a little eerie, meet the candelabra redwood, named after the candleholders they resemble. Just look at them. They belong on a vintage piano in a velvet-draped parlor. Most redwoods grow straight up. These don’t. A single massive trunk splits into a dozen or more, each one reaching for sunlight. How did they get their appearance? Blame the pacific coast. These trees grow in a narrow microclimate along the Pacific Ocean, where gale-force winds and salty air have hammered them for centuries. Storms snapped the tops off the young trunks again and again. But instead of dying, side branches turned upward and took over as new trunks. They grow in an 11-acre grove in Northern California. And their strange shape is the only reason they’re still standing. Loggers took one look at the twisted trunks and decided they weren’t worth the trouble. Photos by the talented @markian.b

Bob Ross was right. And for birds, trees are much more than a place to perch. They provide food, shelter from predators and weather, nesting sites and places to rest and refuel during migration. From the branches to the bark, trees support birds throughout their lives. A place to sit is just the beginning.

Every year, without fail, when Kevin Shorps renews his membership, he plants the 10 trees he receives around the Tampa Bay area. He loves bald cypresses. Now that he has two boys, they continue the tradition of planting trees, but a bit closer to home. What they’ve been growing is more than roots. Trees hold our memories and our stories. They help us connect to the earth and each other. Kevin is committed to showing his boys what they can do for the planet with their own two hands. He’s proud to watch his boys become tree planters.

Record-shattering heat. Devastating droughts. Dangerous flooding. Alarming ocean temperatures. Crop loss. Food and water insecurity. A Super El Niño takes the impact of El Niño and cranks the volume. These naturally occurring systems don’t just create weather extremes everywhere, they can turn typical weather patterns upside down. Think of the usually dry Southwest experiencing torrential rain and snowfall, while rainforests experience droughts. While trees can’t prevent either El Niño, they can help local communities become more resilient. The more we plant today, the better prepared we’ll be for what’s to come.
