Thompson Weave and Breathe for October - bird feeders

Monthly willow workshops focusing on fun and well-being, while building willow weaving skills.
In October we'll be making bird feeders.
About this Event

We are Stuart and Emma and we are willow weavers based in South Norfolk. We make baskets and gifts using willow grown in Somerset as well as willow that we harvest ourselves in Norfolk and Suffolk.
We run monthly willow weaving classes with a focus on fun and wellbeing while exploring some traditional basketry skills. Each month we'll teach a new willow project - from birdfeeders through to Christmas decoratons. Come along monthly, or dip in now and then.
From September we are increasing the length of the classes to allow more time to breathe, laugh and to enjoy a cup of tea!
Arrive from 6:30 and we aim to be weaving by 6:45.
In October's workshop, we'll be using the traditional corn dolly weave to make willow bird feeders.
All tools and materials will be provided as well as teas, coffees and biscuits.
Thompson Community Hall is a modern building with good parking, facilities and accessibilty.
