    We’ve only got shitty monospecies forests where I live, due to commercial usage. I’m thinking, we could add an invasive species, as a treat. 🙃

      Recommend reading “the secret life of trees” to learn about how important the diversity of forests is. The trees evolved to compete with each other, and as a result somewhat rely on the behaviors of old growth forests.

      Really interesting book. Nonfiction.
