The Promise of an Acorn

World Rewilding Day

As we mark World Rewilding Day, we’re reminded of the profound transformations that begin with the simplest of acts—an acorn falling to the ground, a seed finding its home in the soil.

Within every acorn lies a potential giant, a mighty oak waiting to stretch its limbs toward the sky, offering shelter and life to countless beings. This acorn represents not just the future of a single tree, but the future of our forests, our ecosystems, and our very relationship with nature. It’s a silent promise, from the earth to us, that rebirth and resilience are always within reach, waiting for a chance to unfold.

Our rewilding efforts are much like the journey of the acorn. Every tree planted, every river restored, and every step back we take to allow nature to lead is a reflection of this natural process. It’s about starting small, with actions that may seem insignificant in isolation but collectively create a wave of change that can heal our environments.

New Life After Fire

This month, our Earthed Community participated in rewilding Cheeseboro Canyon in collaboration with the Santa Monica Mountain Fund. We planted 200 Valley oak trees in a region impacted by the Wolsey fire. Each of these saplings has the potential to thrive for up to 600 years.

From the tiniest of acorns grow the mightiest of oaks, and from our collective action springs a healthier future. It’s a future where nature flourishes, where wildlife returns and ecosystems are restored to their natural balance.

Join the Movement

Rewilding is an invitation to everyone, a call to action that extends beyond World Rewilding Day. It’s about embracing all of the ways we can contribute to the earth’s resurgence, from adopting no-dig gardening practices to participating in river restoration projects. At Earthed, we’re committed to guiding and supporting these efforts through our courses and initiatives.

Discover how you can participate in this transformative journey by exploring our courses. Let’s make every day a day for rewilding, for ourselves, and for future generations.
