Join dear friend of Hedgerow Herb Co. Marisa Rutto for an evening of weaving with willow. In this class we will be learning to weave a zarzo tray made from willow tended and harvested by Marisa. These versatile trays, woven in the style of Danish gardener and weaver Ulla Misser, are wonderful for drying your freshly harvested herbs, holding the fruits of your foraging or grocery harvests on your counter top, or keeping your in-process craft project all in one place.

The zarzo tray is a simple beginner willow project, making this class a wonderful opportunity for those who have not yet worked with weaving willow, or those who want to practice the skill in circle with others.

Your ticket includes:
+ hands on instruction
+ finished tray crafted by your hands
+ a space to reconnect to ancestral lifeways in community

Please bring:
+ hand pruners
+ sharp knife

In times when a quick click of a button can have any good delivered to your door, at a great cost to both workers and the earth body, learning slow crafts and ways of old empowering gift to oneself and an important lifeway to keep alive through practice.

REGUSTRATION CLOSES AUGUST 6th.
If paying in full before 8/6 is a limiting factor in your ability to sign up for this workshop, please contact the shop for a payment plan.
