Druid 🏴<p>This Lime tree is estimated to be 2,000 years old and this is what it looks like inside. The tree has grown outward over time to form a ring of connected clumps. There's something very special indeed about standing at it's centre and being surrounded by something so ancient. <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/trees" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>trees</span></a> <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/AncientTrees" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AncientTrees</span></a></p>

It is estimated at over 500 years old. There are very few <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ElderTrees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ElderTrees</span></a> of this scale found outside of protected parks on Southern Vancouver Island now. The few remaining unprotected old growth forest tracts should be conserved for stability & longevity of our wild, ancient ecosystems & for the future generations to enjoy/admire/study.</p><p>The need to protect old growth forests has been the case for decades but even more important in present times because of accelerated climate change & the increased greedy desperation of corporate ecociders & our governments who aid/abet the pillaging which destroys wild environments that are essential for humans to sustain our lives on Earth. Valuable medicines are found & several medicines have yet to be found in these old growth, coastal temperate, wild rainforests.
