Pine Needle Basket Class

Pine Needle Basket Coiling

Part of our Farm School Program

Come join us on the Homestead for a morning of handwork, fellowship, and learning a beautiful folk skill from the natural world around us.

Using the longleaf pine needles native to our region, we will learn the traditional art of pine needle basket coiling—gathering a humble material from the land and patiently transforming it into something beautiful and useful.

At Wren Haven Homestead, we believe there is great value in learning the skills that once belonged to everyday life but have become unfamiliar to many of us. Working with our hands teaches us to slow down, to notice, to persevere, and to take pleasure in the process of making something well. These are skills worth preserving and passing along.

This class welcomes adults and older children ages 12 and up.
