The history of pine needle baskets goes back hundreds of years. Traditionally, these baskets were tied together with animal sinew or strong plant fibres (like those from nettle). Today indigenous cultures of the Americas continue their legacy of creating beautiful and useful
baskets out of pine needles.

This workshop is suitable for complete beginners as well as those with some basketry experience.

All materials, a light lunch and refreshments are included in the workshop fee.
