I gather and seeds from my own and others trees. I have even asked folks far way to send me a few seeds. I enjoy it and the grandkids get a real kick out of planting then watching the baby trees emerge and develop.
One other very important item that I bring up in every climate change discussion is the value of trees or branches is as fuel (firewood) to reduce the use of fossil fuels. YES, I know that burning wood produces CO2 BUT this CO2 was already in the atmosphere when the tree sucked it up and used it to make wood and leaves etc.
