ode to a tree

Beautiful illustrations, one letterpressed and the other cut from wood, each credited.

A sad day, the very high winds pulled over one of the majestic London Plane trees in Gray's Inn Gardens today. I will miss admiring the boughs, bark texture and seeking the cool shade in the summer.

The weather has been mad this year, this tree falling has made me think even more deeply about how humanity is screwing up the planet irreversibly. Instead of a recipe, I think this is a good read Alt Guide: Sustainability and Eating Locally.
