- Booking essential
Come and join local basket maker Jane and learn how to make a useful little foraging basket. It is a friendly and welcoming workshop, where we learn together and explore the slow rhythm of weaving. Attendees will be using local willow to each make a small basket, ideal for collecting blackberries, rosehips or anything you can forage from the countryside!
We will work together, with a base pre-made by Jane, to weave a traditional stake and strand basket.
