Thank you for explaining the beneficial effects of allowing the growth of Mountain Cedars in the Texas Hill Country. I have always enjoyed the refreshing aroma of these plants and the breaks they create across the terrain.
Growing up in Texas , central Texas adjacent, i always heard the farmers and ranchers discussing cedars . Primarily their habit of overwhelming a property and limiting grasses and wildflowers/ wildlife very quickly. There was very little discussion of ground water that i can remember. Its so important for us to have this discussion together and to understand how everything works together to make a healthier environment as land stewards .

We do too - although the winter pollen and resulting "cedar fever" is a bit harder to love! 😅
As an arborist for more than 30 years this is a beautiful short story..
I can hear those summer sounds in the background.
That was fun to watch. Thanks for the lesson.
Great, helpful and very enlightening book!

Thank you
She is so right !
Would it hurt to trim all the dead lower branches on cedar trees/bushes?
A little pruning shouldn't hurt the cedar!
cedar trees are invaluable to farmers in east Tennessee!
