Seated Hare Willow Workshop
4th July – 10am-4pm £80 for adult, £70 for a member of FOCT
Join experienced tutor Jo Hammond for this workshop: weave supple willow twigs into a charming seated hare sculpture, lovely to display in the garden or house.
You’ll learn to weave natural brown willow into sculptural forms starting with a simple framework. You will then build the shape with freeweave, make the head, legs and finally beautiful big ears which bring your sculpture to life.
Note- willow weaving is moderately hard work and does require a firm grip.
Tea/coffee and biscuits will be provided. Please either bring a packed lunch or visit the on-site Tiptree Tearoom.
Save the date – APPLE DAY 2026 – 11th October. Please visit the Apple Day page for more information.
Any one interested in 16th/17th century history, garden history, art history, might like this article from the Gardens Trust. We found it very interesting. A turf labyrinth would make a great art project for Cressing.
