The Tree of Plenty is an environmental morality tale set in a poor, rural, mountainous community. The people struggle to make ends meet, while, nearby, lives a mad scientist who invented a tree that grows every conceivable material good. Its boughs groan under the riches hanging from its limbs, but a fierce dragon guards it. A generous and decent woodsman and his two daughters devise a way to improve all their lives, but disaster strikes, and the father must help his daughters and the villagers live in a sustainable way through education, hard work and the skills and know-how of their ancestors.
