Learn a new skill in a friendly, cheerful, and beautiful environment!
This workshop is a gentle introduction to willow weaving. It's fun and chatty while also teaching skills used in later courses. You will learn three weaving techniques and use them to create anything from fish and dragonflies - or 'random invertebrates'! - to pomanders and sunflowers.
The small classes mean you can work at your own pace. The session can be as busy or relaxed as you wish. We will use a mix of materials, all growing on-site, so that you have the opportunity to explore possibilities and make your creations truly personal and unique!
By the end of your weaving class, you'll have gained some new craft-skills to take away with you, along with your wonderful woven work. Whether you're keen to pick up a new skill this year or you just fancy doing something different, this willow weaving workshop is for you!
UPDATE; I am retiring at the end of 2026 - September will be the last workshop.
What you'll get
All materials are provided, refreshments, home-made biscuits and cake, are included, and you take home your wonderful creations!
Knowledge required
No previous experience needed.
What to bring
Layers of clothing - this is Wales after all...

I live in a beautiful part of mid-Wales and have been involved in all branches (sorry...) of organic horticulture for 40 years.
Let me introduce you to the wonderful world of willow!
A fantastic material both ornamental and practical; incredibly durable yet fully biodegradeable.
There are courses for all; short Taster sessions, 1 day workshops learning Structures, and 2 day Basket workshops for both beginners and intermediate level.
Small groups ensure personal tuition - and there's cake too!
