I see, I never looked at it that way. I lived in the rural mountains and didn't see having bamboo surrounding your house was a bad thing other than having a storm brewing near. They have a lot of use case for furniture, coal, and food source from the shoots so removing them wasn't a chore but treated as a livelihood.
Delicious bamboo shoots... not sure if all bamboo species are good to eat though.
Good luck on creating that bamboo forest, you can probably open a small place to get the same experience for tourists wanting to try making their own chopsticks and cook on bamboo too.
