Farm


River Styx Willow Farm is a 5+ acre polyculture, dedicated to sustainable deathcare.

Using tenets of permaculture & coppice agroforestry, we grow many of our materials, creating lower transportation footprint and a more regenerative business and farm practice.

Craft


Trained as a traditional shipwright, my focus ranges from traditional wooden construction to more modern wood and composite techniques. I offer services for restorations and custom new builds.

At RiverStyx Willow, we’re not just into willow -

We're about weaving connections, tending the land, and crafting vessels that honor both life and death. Nestled in the wilds of Northwest Central Indiana, our 6-acre farm is grounded in a commitment to regenerative practices, bodily autonomy, community-centered deathcare, and the art of sustainable craftsmanship.
