Every ring tells a story, and this one's drawn by a real tree crew

October 29, 2026

Every ring tells a story, and this one's drawn by a real tree crew.

Meet "Rings of a Life Well Grown," a fine line-art tree cross-section from Buds Threads. Tiny hand-lettered labels mark the wet spring, the dry summer, the year of the ice storm, and the first year someone hung a swing. Right near the center, a small ring marks where it all began: planted.

As ISA Certified Arborists, we read trees for a living. This is our way of sharing what we see in them.

Available as a poster, mug, T-shirt, and sticker on our Etsy shop. It's a good gift for the tree person in your life, or for anyone with a favorite old tree in the yard.
