Wildberry Sanctuary Tree Weave

Located outside of Asheville, NC, the Wildberry Sanctuary is an outdoor therapy center focused on providing care to foster children. The land has a stream, horses for the kids to groom and interact with, bunnies, and an interactive obstacle course. Our beautiful rope tree house was included as part of the obstacle course. It’s situated on a slope, giving people inside the net a birds-nest view of what’s happening in the rest of the course. The position on a slope enables the net to get maximum height while being extremely easy to access via an entry platform, which also makes a very cool artistic angle with the main space room. This tree net is the perfect size for a family to lie back and have an intimate moment hanging out in the forest. Children (and adults) also use it as a bouncy-castle, a reading nook, and even an interactive yoga pavilion. If this property interests you, consider signing your kid up for one of their summer camps! Scroll down to see a gallery of our incredible Tree Weave.

This Tree Weaves installation was made possible because of our FreeWeaves for Special Needs Fund. When there is a goodwill initiative in our community that does not have the funds available to pay us for one of our rope tree house installations, we are sometimes able to donate or subsidize the cost of their installation with money from this fund. If you have a special needs installation and cannot afford to hire us, email us at treeweaves@gmail.com and pitch us your idea, and we’ll see if it’s something we’re interested in doing, and if the fund allows it. If you want to help fund us to construct more tree nets for people and places that can’t normally afford our work, please donate to our FreeWeaves for Special Needs Fund.

The Growing Wild Forest School Tree Weave is another example of a beneficiary of this fund.
