20: Planting for the Future

from The We Grow Community Podcast Hosted by Aleisha Keating

In this episode, host Aleisha Keating discusses why long-term thinking is the secret to transforming native ecosystems. Sharing insights about some of the native species in South East Queensland, Aleisha describes how different species play different roles in ecosystem restoration, growing at varying speeds and living to different ages. You'll hear about the stages of ecosystem recovery, from the rapid growth of pioneer plants, to the slow emergence of mature trees that provide vital habitat and ecosystem resilience. Discover why the work we do today echoes through time; when you plant a tree, you are planting for future generations and for the future of the earth. You are choosing a biodiverse, thriving future over a degraded, uninhabitatable one.
