Willow Weaving Workshop – Plant Supports
Sun 11 May
Elvaston Castle
Running Time: 3 hours - approximate, including any interval(s).
About the Event
Learn the art of Willow Weaving
With extensive experience Lucy of Willow Knots will guide you to create beautiful willow plant support ‘crowns’ and ‘mini obelisk teepees’ (of about 2 -3 feet high) to take away. Each one completely unique to the maker. You will learn about the creative ways to weave these structures which encourage your plants healthy growth.
All tools and materials will be provided and are included. This workshop will be held outside, in the beautiful Old English Garden at Elvaston Castle Country Park. Whilst we can move to more shelter if the weather is bad, expect to be outdoors, and wear appropriate clothing. This can be quite a physical make, so some ability to bend and strength in hands and fingers is needed.
Pre-instructions will also be sent.
