Organic Matters was started in 2008 to help people to grow vegetables in their own gardens. Initially to complement the vegetable gardening I discovered the wonderful world of willow. After doing a few courses myself I became completely hooked on the most versatile skill and ancient craft of weaving with willow. I've kept the name as I feel it also applies to the new direction I have taken. I believe it is equally important for us to work with organic materials, not just eat organically.
Since 2011 the willow weaving took over completely when I started to teach. I love being able to pass on the skills of this ancient craft and spend time with such lovely people. I run regular basketry, plant support and general weaving courses in Nunney near Frome in Somerset and also at some other local venues. Private courses can be arranged here or at a venue of your choice. I have worked with many schools and have done some really exciting sculpture projects and workshops. Commissions always welcome.
