The Piney Woods Forests, Texas
“Between every two pines is a doorway to a new world.” – John Muir
Project Description
This Gift Tree Planting Project is in the Piney Woods Forests surrounding San Augustine in Eastern Texas.
This planting project will help restore the once dominant longleaf pine forests which covered over 90 million acres from Virginia to Texas. This species abundance has decreased dramatically over time due to non-sustainable timber harvest and clearing of land for agriculture and development. The longleaf pine ecosystem is well known for incredible diversity of plant and animal species that it supports, many of which are endemic only to this habitat. Your tree planting project will restore critical watersheds and rebuild important wildlife habitats, including rare species like the red-cockaded woodpecker, and will ultimately help combat climate change and global warming.
