#Roots Today, I tried to collect roots from a birch tree that was in the way when building a road. Although thin, it is flexible and strong, and can be used as an accent for bark crafts and basket weaving. When building a road, it is necessary to dig up the roots with heavy machinery, so I hope to be able to make use of those parts as well. # Birch # Basket weaving # Road building # Forest road # Work road # Forestry # Small forestry # Hokkaido # Hokkaido # Forest # Forest # Hokkaido forestry # Self-logging forestry # Sustainable living # Living with nature # Satoyama management # Country living # The right person in the right place # Forestry for living with nature # Under nature
