This series started many years ago when I attended a showing "Call of the Forest: the forgotten wisdom of the trees" at Cinematheque in Winnipeg. I was totally hooked into the communication that I had never realized was happening around me daily. As a child I grew up amongst the trees, as a midwife I often sought their strength after a particularly long labour, as a tourist I often needed to forest bathe. As I researched more I felt I needed to do a series.  Mother trees  protect and nurture. The connection between trees and humans is authentic, intimate and generative . By caring for trees we care for ourselves and our future.
