What better way to collect your fresh veg than in a beautiful basket you have woven yourself, Learn how to with Norah Kennedy! You will learn many traditional basket making techniques and discover some interesting new words like slath, slewing, randing and wale. Even better you will have made a willow basket to take home with you. All materials and tools are provided, but if you have a favourite sharp pair of secateurs and a strong penknife do bring them along. There will also be books and photographs for you to browse through and worksheets which you can take home. As places are limited, it is advisable to book early.
