Kauri trees are known as the oldest and largest trees in New Zealand. But you’ll be surprised to know there are also some other types that’ve made it to the top:
1️⃣ New Zealand kauri in Waipoua forest (Northland) is around 2,500 year old, which makes it the oldest tree in the country
2️⃣ Totara in Mangapehi (Southern Waikato) is approximately 1,800 years old
3️⃣ Pohutukawa tree in Stones Bay (the Coromandel) is ‘only’ about 1,110 y.o. @suzannefreiherz
Who has never stopped in front of a huge, graceful tree and simply stood there, in awe, captivated by its natural beauty? ⠀
⠀
On a larger scale, forests are more than simply a large area covered with trees. Plants and trees share information and communicate below ground through complex networks, increasing their resilience to climate change, or insect infestation.⠀
⠀
Forests provide habitats for animals, prevent soil erosion and mitigate the effects of climate change, in addition to providing shelter, livelihoods and more to over 2 billion people around the world.⠀
⠀
Did you know France has drafted a Declaration of the Rights of Trees, with five articles defining their rights?⠀

I’m not ashamed to say I’m a tree hugger nor are my children and husband. These pictures were taken during our travels in #newzealand, #cuba and in our beautiful home country #switzerland.⠀

Today I saw a tree called God. And it was. The Maori call it "Tane Mahuta " Lord of the Forest and it took root at least 2 thousand years ago before the birth of Jesus. So Basically this tree has witnessed everything we humans think of as "western civilization" everything we think of as "important," every injustice or invention, every environmental crime or act of random kindness every strife. Every murder every birth. Everything. And the silence is deafening. #humility #newzealand #meditation #tree #gratitude #poetry #kauritree #history #perspective #joy #love
