I started working on a document that I think will be a helpful reference for those looking to improve their habitat. The document is and will always be free once I publish the sharing link here. Currently, I have a reference chart for protecting trees by tree species and method, a habitat calendar template, and a hunting chores calendar. I need some help though. Please look over this list of tree species and comment below with others that need to be added. If you think they could be grouped in better way, share that as well.
Obviously, much of this will be a matter of opinion. This document will still serve as a template for people to create their own if they want.
Here is what the tree protection chart looks like currently:
