Willow Gathering Tray Workshop with Freyja Ulveland

Join Freyja Ulveland for her Willow Gathering Tray workshop on December 10th from 6–9 pm! In this beginner-friendly workshop, you will weave a small gathering tray from locally harvested willow. We will use a simple wooden jig to hold the ribs in place while we weave, giving you time to become familiar with the material and learn how to choose and place each rod as the tray takes shape.
We will also talk about finding and identifying willow for basketry, when and how to harvest it responsibly, and how to dry, store, and prepare your own willow for weaving. By the end of the workshop, you will have a finished gathering tray to take home and a foundation of skills for continuing to explore willow basketry.
All materials and tools will be provided. Please note that a small technical issue can cause the time to be incorrectly displayed—the correct time for the workshop is 6–9 pm.
