These bowls are a celebration of the\u00a0natural\u00a0patterns found in chestnut wood.\u00a0They were made from trees planted on our farm 30 years ago that were removed due to disease or overcrowding. Instead of letting the wood go to waste, we contacted the members of this association. As you can see from the pictures below, each crafts-person captured the inherent order and beautiful features of the wood and its grain patterns.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Bowl1.2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-441\" src=\"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Bowl1.2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Bowl1.2\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Jerry Kroehn, American Chestnut<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Bowl6.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-445\" src=\"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Bowl6-300x237.jpg\" alt=\"Bowl6\" width=\"300\" height=\"237\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Jerry Kroehn, American Chestnut<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Bowl2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-440\" src=\"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Bowl2-300x235.jpg\" alt=\"Bowl2\" width=\"300\" height=\"235\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Derek Sheehan, Hybrid Chestnut<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Bowl3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-442\" src=\"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Bowl3-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Bowl3\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Barbara Buck, Hybrid Chestnut<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Bowl5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-444\" src=\"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Bowl5-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Bowl5\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>John Cameron, Hybrid Chestnut<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DSC03891.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-446\" src=\"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/DSC03891-300x177.jpg\" alt=\"DSC03891\" width=\"300\" height=\"177\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Jerry Kroehn, Hybrid\u00a0Chestnut<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\tAmerican Chestnut Wood Bowls can be created using both diseased older trees and larger prunings from standing trees.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":442,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[20,22],"tags":[25],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1106"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1106"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1106\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/442"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1106"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1106"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oikostreecrops.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1106"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
