Etymology[]
- "'Would you cut a lovely thing like that down even if it does shut out the view?' So the willow stays... and it is lovely. That's why we've called our place Lone Willow Farm."
- —Diana Barry about Lone Willow farm to Anne Shirley.
Lone Willow Farm was so named because of the lone willow tree that stood on the farm. After Diana Barry and Fred Wright had gotten married, Fred wanted to cut down the willow because it shut out the view. However, Diana did not want it cut down despite it cutting out the view because it was lovely, and so the tree stayed on the farm.
