Insights
Traditionally, yew was planted in churchyards to prevent livestock having access to the poisonous seeds of the berries, while at the same encouraging the growth of a timber that was prized for making longbows, so effective in the Middle Ages. Now the densely grained wood of yew is prized for cabinet making.
