Willow Workshops
Learn traditional willow weaving skills, in a relaxed atmosphere amongst lovely surroundings
You can learn how to make your own beautiful baskets, plant supports, lanterns, sculpture and more from English willow, much of which is grown locally. We have an ongoing programme of day workshops covering many aspects of willow weaving and basketmaking, suitable for beginners and improvers, run from our lovely 16th Century home in Shudy Camps. All materials and a delicious vegetarian lunch are included in the price. Gift vouchers are available.
Courses are limited to 8 places (an average is about 6 participants) ensuring plenty of individual attention.

"I meant to write earlier to thank you for such a fantastic day in September making baskets. It was fantastic. Teaching was perfect, allowing time for assimilation, allowing people to make mistakes without ever feeling that it was a problem, creating an atmosphere that allowed people to chat/ feel welcome/ ask questions. The lunch was completely delicious. And it gives you a huge appreciation for willow and wood and hand made items.
thank you"
