Useful Website Links

Despite her name Hannah is not a basket maker or willow weaver, but the maker of the most exquisite jewellery (including my hare pendant and tree earrings that have received many comments) Her luscious website is well worth checking out!

- Somerset Willow Growers Ltd.
As well as offering next day delivery, this supplier stocks dyed willow - very colourful
- Sue Kirk Willow Baskets
Sue Kirk makes the most beautiful contemporary and traditional baskets, often using her home grown willow. She also runs great workshops where you can learn to make your own.
- The Basketmakers Association
An invaluable source of all things willow related, including a directory of makers and their various skills, and a pretty comprehensive list of courses accross the country.
- Wasseldine
A little more local (for me!) than Somerset, Guy and Jane Lambourne at Wasseldine Bedfordshire started growing willow (for baskets and structures) when looking to diversify their lovely farm in Upper Gravenhurst, Bedfordshire.
- Wyldwood Willow
I am occasionally asked if I make willow coffins. I don't, but Amanda from Wyldwood Willows does, and they are beautiful.
