Make a willow frame basket using Somerset willow on Friday 4 April. These small baskets are ideal for collecting eggs, carrying small items such as secataurs and twine for gardening, for foraging hedgerows or gathering soft fruits from the garden.
The baskets are made of naturally coloured varieties of Somerset willow; the willow will have been expertly processed for your baskets by our fabulous tutor, Linda MIlls.
