Come and enjoy learning a few basic willow-weaving skills, in a relaxing environment. You will produce a large willow obelisk and begin to understand how to work with willow. These structures look great in the garden, on the allotment or even in a pot on the patio. They could offer support to your colourful climbers and runner beans; I’ve even used mine in the house as a centrepiece for hanging photos and birthday cards. All materials and tools are provided. The workshop runs from9.30am to 1pm.

Come and enjoy learning a few basic willow-weaving skills with an experienced tutor and produce one or two beautiful large willow dragonflies. You will attach your dragonfly to a long willow rod, enabling it to ‘dance’ elegantly in the breeze. They look great over a pond, in a flowerbed or gently bobbing above a patio pot. All materials and tools are provided. The workshop runs from 9.30am to 1pm.

Come and enjoy a day (9.15 to 4.30pm) working with willow to create a useful basket. Our experienced basket maker will guide you through many basic techniques, which may whet your appetite to try something more adventurous in the future! All materials and tools are provided.

During this half-day workshop you will make at least two willow Christmas decorations. You can choose from a variety of items including stars, mini reindeer, mini Christmas trees, a blank wreath, a star garland.
