SARAH SONGBIRD: I was excited to try my hand at a small natural building project this past weekend. It was a way to channel my energy into something natural and tangible, and create a thing of beauty for our yard and neighborhood. Wattle fences have been made for thousands of years and I felt somehow connected to my ancestors as I used the excess from a pruning project on our little piece of land. It’s a reminder to get out in the sun, rock some tunes in the front yard, remember to believe in the future and leave beauty where I can.
