Maker
The Stick Smith (aka Dave Jackson) makes a range of beautifully handcrafted bent stick chairs, continuous woven hurdles and woven willow features for the garden. Dave began his journey in coppice and willow crafts in 1999 and has a long history of sharing his skills and knowledge through running a variety of craft courses and workshops at events. Having started in the Malvern Hills, we are now firmly established in the Chiltern Hills in South Oxfordshire where we grow and harvest our own materials.
