sequoia tree 6

GIANTS OF THE FOREST

Oldest living tree

Sequoias can live up to 1,000 years

Fire resistant bark 

Tree rings represent the circle of life 

Our perseverance to grow and expand in spite of our wounds and challenges just like the mighty sequoia 

Wear our age like a badge of honor 

Native Americans called the Sequoia Trees, “the ancient ones”

Grow with the Sequoias, slow and steady until you touch the sky

The Algonquian believe thunderbird is an ancestor and the Universal creator 

The roots that connect with Mother Earth and the limbs and cones that reach for father sky
