Willow Gardener's Trug

Make your own sturdy garden trug, perfect for collecting your autumn harvest. The design is both beautiful and highly functional, and suitable for both adventurous beginners and those with existing basket weaving experience. You will learn some traditional English willow techniques and use willow grown on the Somerset Levels, and by the end of the day, you will have a completed trug to take home with you.

With over a decade of teaching experience, full time basketmaker Sarah Le Breton is incredibly passionate about sharing her heritage craft. As well as making a lovely and useful basket today, Sarah's aim is to enthuse, energise and inspire you.

Please bring with you:

• Your booking reference number
• A notebook and pencil to make notes
• Camera (or mobile phone for photos)
• Secateurs
• Gloves if you wish to wear them

Please wear old clothes and layers. Willow work is very active and you might get quite warm.
To gain the most from this workshop, a good level of mobility as well as finger dexterity and hand strength is essential. All materials provided. Lunch and refreshments included.
