Join us for a full day basket weaving intensive with weaver Alexa Rivera. In this workshop, everyone will make and leave with their own Adirondack Pack Basket- an iconic and historic basket from our neighboring Adirondack Park Region. We will learn basic basketry techniques, and spend the day practicing this ancient, utilitarian, and meditative craft. Join us at Gardner's Supply Company in Burlington, to make your very own Pack Basket- perfect for use while hiking in the mountains, foraging in the woods, harvesting in the garden, or packing for a trip to the lake, farmer's market, or a weekend camping trip!
Water and light snacks provided, please back a lunch.
