Black Ash Berry Baskets

  • CraftStudies Studio & School 87 Maple Street Hartford, VT, 05001 United States (map)

Saturday, March 22, 2025 | 10A - 4P | One-day workshop | $125

Make your own berry basket and in the process learn one of the oldest crafts in human history. For thousands of years, baskets served as indispensable objects in every culture. Carry on the tradition and take home a beautiful, durable, and useful basket crafted from local and responsibly harvested, hand-pounded black ash logs. This is a great introduction to the extraordinary qualities of the black ash tree. Weave a square to round basket, approximately 6”x 6” with an optional leather strap. Included is a discussion on how the material is harvested and processed.

Supplies: $35 supply fee payable to Guest Artist on the day of the workshop.

Guest Artist: Penny Hewitt
