I fully support your tree planting adventures! I have resteemed your post, and sent 10 steem towards the cause.
I am also a huge fan of elderberries, I wild harvest and stockpile berries every summer for my winter medicine cabinet and I also selectively harvest flowers as well. We are working on propagating them on our little homestead as well, so that one day I won't have to go farther than my own mini-forest for the flowers, or berries!
Warmly received! Thanks 💚
I'm doing the same here. Later this winter I'll go take cuttings and try to root them. I hear they're easy to root in a bucket of water like figs. I'll probably go for 15-20 more to be planted as a hedge.
