I've started doing this as a hobby wherever I live after spending some time in the Bay Area and becoming obsessed with how cool huge redwoods are. Growing saplings is slow and sometimes difficult, but one of the coolest things I've ever done was taking saplings I grew and then heading out into a reserve with scientists to plant them. I feel like a huge understated challenge to these efforts is finding land that's protected / optimal for planting that will knowingly not be plowed or cleared within 60 years. Otherwise, it doesn't really matter how many trees you plant if they're all uprooted or killed before they even reach 6' in height...
