River Styx Willow Farm


River Styx Willow Farm is a 5+ acre polyculture, dedicated to sustainable deathcare.

Using tenets of permaculture & coppice agroforestry, we grow many of our materials, creating lower transportation footprint and a more regenerative business and farm practice.

Watercraft


Trained as a traditional shipwright, my focus ranges from traditional wooden construction to more modern wood and composite techniques. I offer services for restorations and custom new builds.
