Create a Beautiful Willow Obelisk for Your Garden
With local basket weaver, Fiona Arnold of Braythorne Baskets
Join us for a hands-on workshop where you’ll learn to weave your own willow obelisk — a stunning feature for your garden that can be used to support climbing plants such as sweet peas, beans, gourds, or clematis, or simply stand as a decorative piece on its own.
Morning Session: Willow Obelisk
🕤 9:30am – 12:30pm
Craft your own elegant willow obelisk, guided by the talented Fiona Arnold, an experienced local basket weaver.
Afternoon Session: Plant Supports
🕐 1:30pm – 4:30pm
In the afternoon, learn to make beautiful and practical supports for peonies and delphiniums — perfect for keeping your blooms standing tall through the season.
You can book either session separately, or join both to enjoy a full day of weaving creativity.
If you attend both, lunch will be included in the price.
