In late May of this year I spent three days working on trees at Peter Tea's studio and workshop.  On one of those days, I got to sit down and chat with Peter's full time apprentice Travis Hendrix.  We covered a wide range of topics including what his apprenticship has been like so far, why Travis picked Peter Tea, his future goals, CA natives, Japanese gardening, collecting, growing trunks and a lot more.  I always enjoy getting to hang out with Travis and am excited to see big things from him in the future.
