Harvesting cork oak bark for wine corks—without killing the tree. 🍷 Bark grows back every 9–12 years, and one tree can be stripped ~12 times in its 150–200+ year life. Basically, the tree that keeps giving… until your great‑great‑grandkids are still arguing about who gets the vineyards. 🤓

There's something in most British villages older than the church. Older than the English language. You've walked past it a thousand times. And nobody told you what it was. 🌳 The yew tree. Some are 2,000 years old. Some are closer to 5,000. The Fortingall Yew in Scotland. One of the oldest living things in Europe. They were sacred before Christianity arrived. When the new religion came, they didn't cut the trees down. They built the churches next to them. The church came to the tree. Not the other way around. Some are hollow. The heartwood rots away. But the tree keeps growing from the outside. A tree can be hollow for centuries and still be alive. Yew wood made the English longbow. Agincourt. Crécy. The weapon that changed European warfare. The wood came from churchyards. Yew is poisonous. Every part of it. Livestock can't go near it. That's why they survived in churchyards when they were cut down everywhere else. The wall saved them. The Ankerwycke Yew. Near Runnymede. Two and a half thousand years old. Magna Carta may have been sealed beneath it. The tree was already a thousand years old when that happened. You can touch them. They're not behind glass. They're in your village. Walk up to one on Sunday morning. Put your hand on the bark. That tree was alive before Julius Caesar crossed the Channel. And it's still growing. Still standing in the same churchyard. Still alive. Still yours. Sources and more available at Be part of us. Be Proud Of Us. 🇬🇧

Seonghwa shares a poem from an ATINY’s letter that inspired him to write his own poem for ATINY and explains its meaning. 🐰 A fan once wrote me a letter, and in that letter they included a poem. I think I may have shared the poem that really moved me. The title is “The Tree That Polishes Stars”, a poem by Gong Gwang-gyu. 🐰 (shy) It’s a bit funny. Some people might think I’m being dramatic, but since there are people who like things like this, I’ll read it. This isn’t my poem. It’s by Gong Gwang-gyu. 🐰 The title is “The Tree That Polishes Stars.”: Couldn’t a ginkgo tree be called a tree that polishes stars? A tree that, through rain, wind, and sunlight, diligently polished the stars. A golden tree dusted with stardust in autumn. I, too, want to become a tree that polishes stars - polishing the star that is you, until I turn beautifully golden because of you. Couldn’t someone like me be called a tree that polishes stars? Me, who wishes to fall beautifully for the star that is you. 🐰 It’s cheesy (but in a cute way). Anyway, it’s a very romantic poem. It was in a letter a fan gave me. That person said they thought of me when they read the poem, so they wrote it in their letter to me. When I read it, my heart felt a little tender and aching. So thinking about this poem, I wrote one myself. (shy) Shall I read it? Or should I show it? The poem the fan wanted to show me was “The Tree That Polishes Stars.” So after reading it, I tried writing a poem titled “Tree.” 🐰 (shows it on camera but it appears mirrored.) Is it upside down? Or mirrored? I’ll just read it. The title… ah, this is really cheesy/sentimental. The title “Tree” (laughs, shy). 🐰 Title: Tree When it rains, stay for a moment - I’ll become your umbrella. When the sunlight is too harsh and hard to endure, rest for a while - I’ll become your shade. Climb on me, ride on my back. I’ll show you a bigger world. When it feels like time has stopped, when you feel alone, I’ll show you the four seasons through my colors. If you ever need a place to return to, even after many years, there in that same place I’ll be waiting. And if someday I’m no longer needed, then… then it’s okay if you cut me down. 🐰 It’s kind of like The Giving Tree, right? I wrote this poem thinking about ATINY, after receiving that poem from a fan. It’s about giving everything - like the tree that gives endlessly. It becomes an umbrella, it becomes shade, you can climb it and see a bigger world from above. A river may look like only one color, but in a forest you can see all four seasons as the leaves change. 🐰 Sometimes when I’m having a hard time, I feel lonely, like time has stopped for me. In those moments, I imagine myself as a tree. As its leaves change, it reminds me that time is still passing. And there are trees that stay in the same place for hundreds of years, right? So even if you leave and come back someday, whenever you need a place to return to, I’ll always be there in that same place. And if one day the tree is no longer needed, then cut me down and still use me for your sake. I wrote it with that kind of feeling - a very devoted feeling, like “I belong to you.”

🚨 WATCH: Ed Davey's Christmas message to Britain "This Christmas tree behind me gets a lot of abuse every year. The social media trolls who spread right wing conspiracy theories like to compare it to the tree in New York City, in Warsaw and in Budapest. They say it is an example of our country’s decline. "And I have to admit – on the surface it does look a little underwhelming. But it’s also my favourite Christmas tree. "You see, this tree is a gift from the people of Oslo to the people of Britain for our support during the Second World War. They’ve sent one every year since 1947. It’s a wonderful tradition that reminds us of the greatest generation and the sacrifices they made. "Because when Norway was invaded by the Nazis in 1940, the King of Norway sought refuge in Britain and led the resistance to the occupation from here. "To the people of Norway, during that dark period of Nazi rule, Britain became a symbol of freedom and hope. "So this tree is about friendship and loyalty. "It makes me think about people standing together in tough times – whether against the Nazis in the 1940s, or right now in Ukraine. "And yeah it might not be perfect, but this tree in Trafalgar Square makes me think about families and friends looking out for one another right here at home. "I can’t think of a better symbol of the Christmas spirit of generosity, love and hope. Of light in the darkness. "So Merry Christmas from my family to yours. And if ever get a chance to pop down here – this is a tree that’s well worth a visit"
