In this episode of Roots of Recovery, we journey through the rainforests of Cameroon and Belize to discover two legendary trees: ebony and mahogany. Known for their deep resonance and rich tone, these trees shaped the sound of music across centuries—but at a steep environmental cost. Now, a new harmony is being written. From Taylor Guitars’ replanting efforts in Africa to reforestation hopes in Central America, we explore how conservationists, luthiers, and communities are working to bring music and forests back into balance.

🎵 Trees once silenced are beginning to sing again.
