Redwood trees, among the tallest and oldest living organisms on Earth, dominate the coastal forests of Northern California. These majestic giants can reach heights of over 350 feet and live for more than 2,000 years, showcasing a resilience that has captivated nature lovers for centuries.
Their thick, reddish-brown bark is not only visually striking but also serves as a protective layer against pests and fire. The unique ecosystem they create supports diverse wildlife, from towering canopies filled with birds to the rich undergrowth teeming with life. As symbols of endurance and beauty, redwoods remind us of the importance of conservation and our connection to nature.
