I visited the Robert Frost Farm in Derry, NH, last June after I read that the tree said to have inspired some of his poems was to be cut down because it “posed a safety hazard.” A branch had already fallen from the tree.
According to the Boston Globe, “Wood from the tree was distributed to artisans, who have plans to craft it into walking sticks, bowls, furniture and other items.” A new tree is to be planted in the spring.
