Come and make your own basket in a relaxed but supportive atmosphere. On this two-day workshop, you will be able to take on a more ambitious project than you would on the one-day class. It is suitable both for beginners and people who have made baskets previously. Typically, you can expect to make something like a shopping basket or the equivalent.
Come and learn this age-old skill of turning a bundle of twigs into a beautiful and useful basket. You will make a small basket such as a fruit bowl. You will also learn how to grow, harvest and prepare willow for the weaving.
This one-day craft course will be running on the following dates: Saturday 16th May and Saturday 15th August

Newhaven Coppice provides a space for craftspeople, volunteers, archaeologists and members of the public to discover more about the lives of people from our shared past.
It is a working woodland, which has been ever evolving over the years, with an aim of becoming a centre for ancient and traditional crafts, knowledge sharing and experimental archaeology. In 2018, Newhaven Coppice opened its gates to community groups, schools and anyone interested in learning about our native woodland heritage. To compliment and bring the incredibly deep and diverse world of our ancestors to life, we are well on the way to creating an archaeologically accurate representation of an Anglo-Saxon farmstead.
