“I have tried to record some of the numerous experiments of my life; indeed I am vividly aware that life is one continuous experiment. I would like to feel that what I have been permitted to achieve in conservation and as an earth healer through a lifelong planting of trees may encourage many others to dedicate their lives to the service of the earth.” Richard St. Barbe Baker
