I still remember a tree my dad had growing up that I helped cut and chip after it came down. I was probably 7 or 8. One of the only times I saw him cry when I was a kid. It made a huge impression on me, and I’ll remember his tree forever.

That's an amazing story, thank you for sharing it with us. Our family planted 40 acres of orchard and we lost it decades ago. Trees are so vitally important.
