When a forest goes through a massive disturbance, little survives. We begin our journey here. What happens in the first stage of the succession of a forest? Learn in this episode through the eyes of the staghorn sumac (Rhus typhina), an en'tree'preneur of the early succession. MAKE YOUR MOVE.

Completely Arbortrary is produced and hosted by Casey Clapp and Alex Crowson
