Wonders of Willow
Feb 14 and 15, 2026
@ Sky Nursery

Join us for a first-of-its-kind community event celebrating willow— a remarkable plant that restores streams, weaves baskets, increases biodiversity, and creates habitat across the Pacific Northwest. Discover species that can enrich home gardens, wild spaces, and farms.
Whether you are interested in weaving a willow basket, growing willow as a crop, leveraging willow for a restoration project, or adding winter color to your home garden - W.O.W. will have something for you.
Free community presentations from local willow experts
Small group beginner willow weaving workshops (registration opens Jan 1st)
Local willow growers selling living cuttings & dry willow by the pound
Willow-focused vendors
Live weaving demonstrations with Q&A
Woven willow and basket exhibit
This event is being organized by Field and Forest Crafts founder Erin Cox, in partnership with many wonderful willow growers, weavers, and willow friends.
Interested in volunteering?
We are looking to recruit a handful of volunteers to help support the event. No willow experience needed - but a love of willow preferred. 😀
