Hello! Everyone calls me G-Frog. I post videos to inspire people to get out and create stories to tell in their own lives, and to take a leap to try something new. Subscribe if you like interesting adventures, motivation to create your own stories to tell, and occasionally, tales of my hitchhiking exploits throughout the world.
I just finished tree planting and it was my first season I’m really crying after seeing your video I miss all of my co-workers so much we had a all boys crew ( kinda sucks ) but we all just became brothers real quick.i miss you all of you
Planting trees of same veriaties especially desiduous trees can bring more risk as in BC alot of where fires happen are logged and replanted areas because ground cover is not there to protect soil from sunlight. So when developing trees struggle due to loss of ecology in soil. They burn much easier. More importantly then this, is to have agriculture peoples and the lands grow trees perhaps ones for Yields like fruits and nuts etc to further the economic benefit. But more then that it will free the farmers. With deep roots the trees nurish surrounding crops, and landscapes. leaf fall will fertilize but more importanly support ecology(ie worms insects, etc) Will be benifitted bringing nurishment to the land) It will also hold reserses of water with an organic content in the soil of 8-12% the amount of water it can hold will double. The land will have more rainfall farmers wont have to irrigate as much plus the land wont be harmed from mall practices(ie tilling, plowing. The worms and life in the soil will airate itself creating the conditions optimal for nurished plant development. This is how we can save nutrition of humans and degradation of the land. The big issue now is implementing it on the ground and on other nations.
Everybody has their own type of boots they swear by. Some people will tell you good hiking boots like Scarpas that will last multiple seasons. Others will say logging caulk boots. What i have used and loved for the last 4 or more seasons has been regular rubber boots. I buy about 2 or 3 decent pairs from Canadian Tire, Marks Work Warehouse, wherever, and get them 1 size bigger. Then I wear regular socks and bama socks so it is a snug fit in the boot, and the boot isn't loose at all. I prefer doing this because on rain days, through puddles, mud, wet terrain, my feet always stay warm and dry. They do fall apart, but that's why I bring 2 or 3 pairs, and generally I'm spending less than $100-$200 to have dry feet for the whole planting season, and you'll make that money back comfortably in no time. As its your first season, maybe try a pair of hiking boots, and a pair of rubber boots, especially because they can be cheap to pick up. See what you like best, because everyone is different. I hope your feet stay dry, and you have an AMAZING first season out in the bush! Depending on the company, being a rookie can be rough, but remember even on the hardest days you got this, you choose to be there, and to ignore any stupid people that poke fun at you for being a rookie. We all started out learning how to plant a tree properly, and we all grew from there. Stay safe, stay warm, and happy planting!
@@G-Frog thank you so much I needed that info and your positive spirit. Many blessings to you and I will keep a positive outlook and not look at the big picture. I will stay intouch
The light shined upon him and he did what was right, its thier lose and im sure they will be judged for what they smdid to him for saving the kives of the workers, soo its possible he was chosen to act as god would have wanted but i dont think being punished was right, but if took him out of such a situation then lets say gods hand and thinking led him, thanks for this video, blessing upon him.
I have noticed them to be strangely unforgiving which is contrary to the examples of jesus. Wouldnt surprise me if some dudes wife was making eyes at john.
Paul explains in Galatians that we are set free from the law and religiosity. We are free in Christ. The Church, the laws you keep will do nothing for you when we meet Christ. He just want a personal relationship with you. Galatians.
Almost for sure he was member of the Noah Hoover Mennonites (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noah_Hoover_Mennonite) and the real reason he was banned was not the fact what technology he used but his refusal to stop it, when asked to do so. When a person joins such a community through adult baptism this person makes a commitment to obey the rules. Therefore breaking the rules and not to repent when asked to do so results in the ban. By the way, I studied traditional Anabaptist communities for decades, reading all the literature and living with several such communities for a longer time.
see, this is why i dont want to start youtube. you think you're going to make a cute lil space away from the eyes of your peers, but here i am looking into the obscure Mennonite communities of south America's Belize and Peru, and i find a person i went to school with! lmfao. really cool what you're doing though bro, b safe!
1-3 species being planted in a given block, usually. It's unfortunate that they're monocultures, but worth noting that this isn't for habitat restoration, this is a crop. It will be cut again in 40 or so years, rinse and repeat. Obviously not ideal, but better plantations than cutting old growth.
We were pleased to accidentally see your u tube. We knew John when we owned some property in Barton Creek. We have often wondered how he was doing. It is the church's loss to excommunicate him. He is an incredible person, and highly intelligent. One of the finest we have ever met.
No, it's a lot harder to make tree planting money, pay was based per bucket, and with shorter hours I think it was around $100 to $150 a day. So decent money, no where near planting, but good as a casual summer gig after planting with friends
