Sarah reviewed: Willow Trug Basket Workshop

"Suz's course was perfect for me and I was very, very happy with my finished basket which is already in use. I liked her teaching style which I found calm, clear & precise. I will book further courses with Suz and will recommend them to others. Thank you for a great day !"

SCPH reviewed: Round Shopper Willow Basket

"An absolutely wonderful experience, expertly taught by Suz, who managed to make learning easy to follow, with all the help and extra guidance available when needed. My son and I were delighted to leave with pretty professional looking baskets at the end of our day, along with a lovely shared memory. Many thanks indeed."

Freddy reviewed: Round Shopper Willow Basket

"I attended this course with mum as I love wood working and she loves crafting so a happy medium to spend time together. Both total novices in basketry. Despite only having one working hand that day, I left with a basket a foraged apple would not be embarrassed to call home. Thanks Suz for your teaching, seemingly eternal patience, coffee, biscuits and mega tunes! Definitely recommend!"

Stephen Rice reviewed: Wild Woodland Craft Day

"We had a great day at Greenbroom Farm with Suz. She is friendly and helpful as well as being very knowledgable about woodlands, wood crafts and foraging. It was a fascinating day, learning about the wood crafts and the nature of the surrounding area. Suitable for children and adults, I would very happily do more of Suz's courses. Whittling wood is such an absorbing activity that the time flew by - very mindful. Thank you Suz."

"I absolutely loved this course. The setting was so wonderful in the woodland with the birds chirping and the smell of the fire. It was also raining which created such a wonderful ambiance. Suz is a great and patient, instructor which as a result meant I got to leave with a beautiful willow basket which I’ll cherish forever. Will definitely consider doing it again! "

"An excellent course, 3 hours in a wood surrounded by bird song, Suz made us drinks heating water on a fire. All very rustic but special. The tuition was clear and very encouraging. We were all happy with our obelisk, and went away feeling very calm and refreshed. I would love to do another course with Suz "
