Enjoy Black Fox Hollow

My hope for this page is to provide a journal in pictures as it changes through the seasons, new plants are discovered and young trees grow.

Black Fox Hollow, named after Cherokee chief Black Fox, is 1.5 acres we have worked to return to its original beauty. Along with 60-70 trees,  I have catalogued 150 native plants of which 50% are edible and 50% are medicinal. It is my sanctuary. 

Our home, which I call our 'cabin in the woods', sits about twenty feet above the hollow on a natural outcropping of 3.5 million year old limestone. 

In May of 2025, we experienced a horrendous storm with straight-line winds in excess of 90 miles per hour. We lost our Mother Tree, a beautiful   Beech tree that was so large it took five other threes with it when it fell.
