About this Event

Enjoy a peaceful and creative morning at Fingringhoe Nature Reserve learning how to weave your own willow bird feeder.

Guided step by step, you’ll be introduced to traditional willow weaving techniques and shown how to shape and secure a feeder that’s both practical and beautiful.

This workshop is suitable for beginners and those with a little experience. All materials are provided, including willow and fat balls, so you can hang your finished feeder straight away and support local wildlife at home.

Set within the tranquil surroundings of the reserve, this workshop is a lovely opportunity to slow down, work with natural materials, and enjoy time outdoors while learning a new skill. No prior knowledge needed – just come along and enjoy the process.


£32.50 per person (includes fat balls)

Spaces are limited early booking recommended.
