About the event

Join us in the beautiful setting of Summer Leys to learn some basic weaving techniques and create a willow obelisk to take home with you, which you can use to grow climbing plants up.

  • Please note willow weaving is surprisingly physical and some strength in the hands is required
  • Drinks included
  • Suitable for ages 8+. Weaving can be tricky for younger children so we'd recommend booking one place for an adult + child to make an obelisk together.

PLEASE NOTE: Car parking charges now apply for Summer Leys. Parking for members of the Wildlife Trust BCN is FREE - Members MUST register their vehicles to access free parking, for more information please visit here.
