Where there's a willow there's a way

Besides lending themselves to create easy puns, willow is also a very handy plant to have in the garden. Especially if that garden is focused on growing artist's materials, which is the case at the Means of Production (MOP) garden. This garden features a variety of willow, used for living art pieces in the garden. It is also a beautiful and eco-friendly fencing material. It is the season for willow harvesting and EYA has had several successful work parties to cut, sort, and bundle this bountiful crop. We also did some weaving, which we will certainly be doing more of in the months to come.
