Errata is a series of botanical-inspired publications celebrating imperfection, improvisation, and happy accidents in both printing and planting.

Ode to an Ancient Tree draws from the extensive American Colony of Jerusalem archives (1880s–1950s) to explore the intersection of plants, people, and place. The selection of photographs, edited and altered by Christina Labey, focus on the world’s oldest cultivated fruit tree species—olive, pomegranate, fig, and citrus—alongside documentation of early twentieth-century locust plagues. The result is a contemplation of humanity’s deep-rooted and symbiotic connection with trees—from cultural heritage and cultivation to the ecological impact of natural disasters and human destruction.
