Among the many titles that he earned throughout his incredible career as a writer and scholar, J.R.R. Tolkien was certainly a learned mythologist. With this in mind, few aspects of his fantasy world-building feel more rooted in myth than the Valar, god-like beings who shaped the face of Middle-Earth eons before the race of hobbits even existed. Among these, one of the most captivating Vala of Tolkiens early mythos is Yavanna, the Giver of Fruits.
