Turn invasive, nonnative plants into functional art!
Join the Primitive Naturalist Jeff Gottlieb for this 3 hour workshop to learn the basics of vine spoke basket-making! No need to merely bad mouth non-native plants, why not find excellent reasons to harvest them? We’ll make beautiful, useful ribbed baskets using kudzu, wisteria, and other fast growing fibrous, nonnative plants. All materials are provided, and class fee is $20. This class is intended for ages 12 and up.
We will meet at Wildkitchen Supply (567 W. Main Street, Sylva, NC 28779) in downtown Sylva just before 5:00pm on Friday, August 23rd. Please plan to arrive 10-15 minutes early to park and get settled, the class starts sharply at 5:00pm. This workshop will run until 8:00pm.
