Notes

The Redwood Seed is a planting item gathered from Old Growth Redwood and Redwood trees. While it provides no edible nutrition, it is compostable and can be planted to grow a new redwood tree. Planting seeds like this is a way to replenish harvested trees and help maintain the local forest ecosystem, as deforestation can collapse food sources and stall skill progression.
