The big old oak tree
This is our old oaktree over the road on the flats. It's huge and it's old and we named it's paddock 'oak tree paddock' after it. The boys built the ladder up the big trunk and into the tree when they were young. We often imagine how many creatures it gives a home to ... it must be millions!
The trees here on our small farm provide shelter from the sun and wind for us, our crops and our livestock. And of course we all know trees give us oxygen, store carbon, stabilise the soil and give life to the world's wildlife.
But most of all I love how much character trees give. I can't imagine how the world would look without trees.
