About Redstone Willows

 

Since 2002 we have been growing willow on our land, whilst working with willow within education including schools and the community as well as teaching a wide range of exciting willow courses and workshops.

 

We now grow over 150 different varieties of willow on our stunning 18 acre site located on the Cheshire /Staffordshire border - the varieties available to buy (subject to availability) are now listed on our willow cuttings page.

 

As Redstone Willows are dedicated to willow growing and basket making, we are also members of the Basket Makers Association.

 

 

We have recently extended our range of willow courses to include bushcraft courses including survival skills such as shelter building, campfire lighting and much more!

 

 

 

 

Benefits of Willow

 

Willow has a very positive effect on the environment as it provides a biological filtration system, creates a natural habitat for a range of invertebrates, which in turn encourage birds and small mammals to the area and supplies us with a sustainable construction material with a low carbon footprint.
