Crafts in the Woods - Bark weaving
Nature-based crafting in a monthly club just for adults.
Join us around the fire in our secluded woodland camp for a peaceful day of crafting. Each session is different as we move through the seasons but includes traditional and heritage crafts, all using natural materials which are often harvested from the farm.
This year activities will include willow weaving, antler carving, leather working, bark basket weaving, coil basket weaving and fibre based crafts. These sessions encourage a genuine connection with nature and can help to improve mental health and wellbeing.
This month we will be weaving with bark to create a small woven basket. We will also be harvesting and processing nettles to use for next month's craft project.
Participants must be 18+
Hot drinks and snacks will be provided but please bring a packed lunch in a bag that is comfy to carry through the woods. Dress for a day outdoors and wear sensible shoes suitable for uneven terrain.
