About the Event
On this one day workshop you will learn traditional willow basketry techniques to create a unique, contemporary basket with wooden handle.
Willow weaving can sometimes be wet and dirty so please wear clothes that you don't mind getting messy.
This is an intermediate level course and previous basketry experience is required. You will need good manual dexterity. Tools and materials will be provided.
Light refreshments will be provided. For lunch, you can either bring your own and picnic in the farm grounds, or buy from the onsite cafe.
Weaving can be hard on the hands and might not be suitable for those with conditions that restrict manual strength and dexterity. All persons attending my workshops must be aged 18 or over.
The farm has free parking.
