Weaving the Willow with Anthea Firth

Today was the first of a series of four courses which will be delivered by Anthea Firth in willow weaving. Using malleable wet willow the group were shown how to fashion the wood into the elegant shape of a dragonfly - each with its own personality!

Anthea's beautiful dragonflies will be popping up on display in the Conservatory and Cafe over the coming days.

Following a successful day, and many happy weavers, Anthea will be running further courses this summer:

8th July - Rabbits & Hares
2nd Sept - Deer
4th Oct - Pigs
