Did you know that trees communicate?

Trees are highly collaborative and nurture their young

Ecologist Suzanne Simard says trees have a advanced social network existing underground.  There are mother trees who nurture the young trees.  When you map their network it looks very much like the internet with hub trees that connect to many trees and outlying trees.  Suzanne’s talk is fascinating and she engages you with her stories on how she discovered trees talk to each other.  Great to listen to on the journey to work, school or the shops.

Take a walk in the park or the countryside and see what you can feel about the trees.  Before you go, listen to Suzanne’s fascinating talk.  It is not scientific but is very informative.
