“One of the things that surprised me, especially since I’ve been doing the tree planting, is how much more I’m capable of than I ever thought I was. I think if six months ago you asked me if I thought I could stand in a field all day and plant trees, I’d have said no way. Things like that, you surprise yourself.”

She’s inspired by working with the other volunteers and working together.
