About the event

Join a small group on our beautiful nature reserve to learn some basic weaving techniques while making an attractive and useful garden obelisk to take home. There will be an opportunity to join a short guided walk of the nature reserve towards the end of the day and learn about BBOWT's work here. All the materials you will use are grown and harvested onsite. This course is suitable for beginners. Over 18s only please.  

We offer a wide range of wild weaving courses throughout the year, from baskets and butterflies to Christmas wreaths, keep an eye on the website or ask to be added to our mailing list so you don't miss out.

Will you help answer nature's SOS call by adding a £5 gift to this booking? You'll help BBOWT bring nature back across our three counties. Please select a donation ticket option if you wish to donate. You can find out more about our Nature Recovery Fund here.
