Tree Dreaming at the California State Fair with the Tree Circus in July 💚 🌳

My friend Tracy’s May Day gift in 2012 inspired a dream collaboration that exploded into people writing their Tree Dreams around the globe. And Tree Dreams still keeps spreading—now to the writers of the Coffee Creek Correctional Facility. 🌲🤩 Always in awe of what can be accomplished with persistence + patience + interconnection… 

・・・ layered story here from @bridgeworksoregon: starting with a labor of love with my dear friend @heykristinkaye and her beautiful novel #treedreams. We made a project together with tagging kits for people to write offerings to trees--those wishes faded in sun and rain and eventually degraded in the shadow of the trees--@treedreamstags holds the history. Years later, a stack of books arrived from Kristin as a gift for our writing project at Coffee Creek Correctional Facility. At last, we are able to join our writers in person for this @regionalarts funded project (persistence and patience have been key as we've waited three years to officially meet!)

'For the truth is...we are cut off from the great sources of nourishment and renewal, sources that flow eternally in the universe. Vitally, the human race is dying. It's like a great uprooted tree with its roots in the air. We must plant ourselves again in the universe.' ~ DH Lawrence, Lady Chatterly's Lover, 1928

If you reveal your secrets to the wind, you should not blame the wind for revealing them to the trees. ~ Kahlil Gibran

Thank you for tagging, Portland, OR!

Character is like a tree and reputation is like a shadow. The shadow is what we keep thinking of; but the tree is the real thing. ~ Abraham Lincoln
