We're out in the woods and moving trees that I'm going to trample in a future build. One might say this chore is FIR a good reason 🤣. So moving saplings to a meadow that is currently treeless, in hopes that I'll be able to SPRUCE up the place... 😐
Anyway, I'm alone in the forest and I yell a lot because bears.

Love how you respect the forest and also utilize it recycling it for what you need

🌲Thanks friend! Definitely try to be a steward to these woods. Past all that, it's also a decent way to save a load of cash. Any one of those conifers of size would probably run me over $75 at the garden centre.. and I won't even tell you what they want for a cedar log around here. 💰

Someday those trees will be big enough to drop pine cones/seeds and more trees will grow and fill it in nicely.

That's what I'm hoping for! 🌲🌲🌲 Also thinking that as they grow, birds will use them and bring more seeds and junk along the way... maybe they'll provide some kind of nicer growing environment for other things that don't like as much sun... all kinds of growery-stuff!

Hey Jay it's nice to transplant trees and so rewarding when they take root. It sounds like you're living in fear with all the bugs and tics and bears 🐻 my suggestion is to get free ranging chickens for the tics ( like a dozen ) and it's been my experience That black bears 🐻 want nothing to do with humans unless you have a sandwich in your pocket 😅

Thanks Joe! Not living in fear no lol, but blacklegged ticks have become a pretty serious issue this way and their numbers are increasing to a point where our Province has put out some pretty dire info regarding their numbers.. I've had to pull so many off of me, and they're gross.. 🤢. I love the idea of chickens (and still working on Ms. Lady for that one 🤣), but with acres and acres of forest, If we let them out in the woods where I'm usually at, I'm sure they'd just become food for someone else. 🐺. We had a nuisance bear once, and they're just annoying. I don't actually think Bosco's going to attack me, but the one time I was hiking out in our woods with the youngest and we're in flip-flops of all things, that was the day we came across a cub in a tree - I was without anything to give me a hand should I inadvertently annoy or spook Momma. So I like to keep the spray close should anyone ever get too friendly. 😆🧸

🤣🤣🤣 I LOVE FOREST PUNS! The weather had me stumped. I conifer really control what nature does, and while I could pine at the lack of progress, maple I'll look on the bright side and be happy with how much I spruced up the place 🌲🌲🌲
