ISATIS TINCTORIA (Woad) I Joe Hollis of Mountain Gardens
Introduction to Mountain Gardens
For the past 25 years, I have been engaged in developing a Paradise Garden on several acres of mountain woodland in western N. Carolina. For me, Paradise Garden is both a place to live and a way to live, and, above all ‘visionary ecological theater.’ I am trying to act on deep instincts and archetypal images related to human habitat and niche as a way of providing a sustainable values system with sufficient appeal to challenge the dominant consumer culture. The philosophy of this project is outlined in the Paradise Gardening article; it is the mother of all the other projects here. Read more at http://mountaingardensherbs.com/index.php/about/

Brooklyn Lace Guild
Amazing video of a rare technique captured by one of our members-at-large in Ossingen, Switzerland. She's working with horsehair and bobbins and a special hairwork stand to make hair jewelry (seen at the end). This type of work was popular in Victorian mourning, using the hair of loved ones. We've never seen this practiced today so it's a thrilling find!
