Birchum - God of Nature

As a tall, lanky man, wrapped in bark and adorned with emerald foliage, it is no mistaking Birchum as the chosen avatar for all things vegetation, yet despite his arboreal appearance, he does have a distinct, humanizing feature, which is to say his frequent use of nature based puns and jokes, oft to interweave them into casual conversation. Although often in good spirits and quick to joke, he is able to lower his tone to be serious, even if his definition of a somber-necessity moment is far more lax than other's.   Considering his uncanny appearance to a tree, it is common folklore that he could be in any forest at any time. It is also believed that Birchum is responsible for the seasons, chiefly as a way to give equal time for different plants to prosper in climates applicable to them.  
"I wish Birchum made winter a lot shorter. My watermelon crops are my most profitable!"
— A gossiping farmer
  Commonly worshiped by: Druids, Farmers, Elves, Gardeners.

Thank you. I have a ton of detailing to do, but I wanted these out there a taster. As in the latest chapter of my creation story ( https://www.worldanvil.com/w/ayn-working-title-aevri/a/a-story-of-beginnings---ch-3---a-life-above-life-article ) I have a lot of work to do.
