Can you actually grow a forest in the middle of the Texas desert without planting a single tree?
Inspired by the work of @planet-wild, I’m testing a concept called Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR).
Instead of fighting the land or babying expensive nursery saplings, I’m looking at the "underground forest" already here: native shrubs like Catclaw Acacia and Desert Olive—and trying to prune them into becoming actual trees.
This episode is a "grading my homework" session.
We revisit Lone Tree, a success story from two years ago, but also look at a "learning opportunity" where I pruned a Desert Olive so aggressively it went into severe shock.
Between dog rescues and a surprise visit from Border Patrol (who might be bringing a road grader!), we’re figuring out if this low-tech, high-effort method is the most effective way to spend our time.
