Tree Art
This historic Silver Maple tree, originally planted at the Boise Assayers Office in the late 1800s, was
removed in the summer of 2022 due to disease. River Valley Woodworks purchased the log from the
tree service company because of its hollow center and excellent shape. Although we had no specific
customer in mind, we began building it into a tree house by grinding the log smooth on the inside and
building a door and two windows. Soon afterwards we discovered that the Star City Concil wanted an
artistic playground piece and our Silver Maple tree house had a forever home. We continued and
finished the project, craning it into place at the River House in Star, ID in January of 2023. Come tour
