Open Trench (wall piece) the hagstone rocks are really just extra! 😅 (2,026) $$200.00 When Spring Creek was a wide open waterway she meandered as she pleased, providing sustenance and habitat for native flora and fauna, powering mills and irrigating local crops and orchards. Eventually, she became a threat, causing enough destruction that it was decided she had to be contained. A trench was cut, cement and rebar were placed, and Spring Creek was covered. I am struck by how similar this story is to the treatment of women throughout time. When they have behaved most like themselves and taken up “too much” space, they have been censored, silenced, and hidden away. What a joy it is to see Spring Creek open and visible again, appreciated as the wild woman she has always been.

My youngest child was 2 when we moved to Springdale and one of my favorite things to do with him was to go to Spring Creek where it runs along Lake Springdale and watch his imagination bloom as the natural world filled his vision and cooled his little feet. He's grown into a gentle lover of creatures and wild places, and I think Spring Creek helped make that happen. http://seelauriewrite.com https://www.instagram.com/collage_and_coffee?stkn=Zm91bmdxdnEzOGV1&utm_source=qr
