midwestfag here. Never forget to plant TREES. I fucking ADORE trees. We'd be right back to a dustbowl. Trees were a proponent to heal the land.

I'm not that far. Many of the trees in the area were dropped from those planted. I know that most trees where I am are not native.

it's why barbed wire was invented. Not enough trees for fencing, but the dust bowl forced us to change the landscape. Interesting stuff.

It's true and the science is in about the tree root networks that are so vital to everything in the environment. Amazing actually. I no longer cut out the tree roots in the garden,but for the invasives. Garden is healthier. hard to balance the sunlight, tho.

I had a damn mulberry tree that would never die. After the first cut, it coppiced. I didn't know much about the process at the time. Now, I just cut it every year for firewood. ha

You tap those trees? I tap the maple and poplars for experience.

You are correct. Hard to keep tiny spaces from filth.
