there’s a tree that I love that I live a nine-hour car ride away from. I met this tree in the beginning of 2021, a beautiful redwood that had its base burned out, carved open so you could sit inside it and look up at its bark. I’m still so young in my relationship to trees. But I’ve heard from folks who have a much more established relationship with trees and with fire, that fire can actually be quite good for redwoods, that the burn is part of the regeneration and the growth of something new.
