He loves welcoming you into the generosity and peaceful presence of the trees and forest ecosystems by building for you and your family. Whether it’s living spaces, play spaces, meditation spaces, bridges, decks and platforms, his structures will help you spend time appreciating the profound gifts that our great, leafy friends have to offer.

Sharing the healing and wisdom of the natural, living world is Erin’s passion. One of the ways she expresses her love of forests and trees is by helping her husband, Adam, with outreach, strategy and vision for World Treehouses of Asheville, NC, helping our business to put down roots, send up branches, and bear fruit to benefit our clients. Every time we build a new treehouse, she feels satisfaction from enriching more people’s lives with a deeper connection to the great remedy that treehouses, with their unique connection to the magic of Nature, offer.
