Willow Harvest, You Are Invited!

JOIN OUR WILLOW HARVEST

 

This is an invitation you don't want to miss. We would love to welcome you to join our willow harvest now, and then come back in summer to learn how to transform your cuttings into a basket. 

Why do we have willow? As many of you know, we are pursuing 'regeneration': doing exponentially more good than harm. One of the highlights of our farm is our wetland system, where we work with the power of nature to clean more water than we use. In terms of water we are regenerative!
 
Willow is at the heart of the wetland, and we want to share our annual harvest with you.  So - we have a few offers.

OUR FREE OFFER

Come and harvest, as much as you like. All you have to do is drop us an email to let us know when you can make it down. We are open 5 days a week, Monday to Friday, 8:30-5:00pm. What can you do with your harvest?
  1. You can take this away to plant your own willow Willow whips are easy to plant, you literally just stick them into damp soil, the wetter the location the better. We can teach you!
  2. Take your bundle home to weave with, at your own pace, and with the help of the internet (or if you are lucky) a basket weaving friend!. If you are keen to weave, come soon, before bud burst in Spring. 

TICKETED EVENTS

We will also be posting 1-2 workshop days in the coming months where you can come and learn to weave with an expert. These will be day long events and will include lunch and a tour of the farm and workshop. 

Option 1: £125.00. Come and harvest and store your bundles here.
Option 2: £150.00: We will harvest for you, and you come and join the weaving experience.

If you are keen on any of the above just drop us an email and we will plan for your arrival, harvest on your behalf, or put your name on the list to notify you for the summer weaving experience.
