Part 4/6:
For many planters, this time in the woods is not merely a job; it becomes a cherished chapter in their lives. The relationships formed during the planting season are profound. Friends and peers, whom they may only see during this time of year, welcome each other back like family, embracing the quirks and eccentricities that define their group.
The camaraderie extends beyond familiar faces; it includes a variety of colorful personalities who share in the labor and joys of tree planting. Even those whom they may not see outside of the planting season hold a special place in their hearts, contributing to the sense of belonging that defines this period.
