Our Little Story

Basketry Traditions began with a simple idea: to honor the quiet beauty of handmade things and the deep wisdom woven into traditional crafts. What started as a small gathering of friends weaving by the riverside grew into a shared journey—connecting cultures, generations, and people through the humble act of weaving.

Inspired by the rhythms of nature and the stories passed down through hands and hearts, we created a space where anyone can slow down, learn, and reconnect. Every course we offer carries this spirit: rooted in respect, guided by tradition, and open to all who are curious to create.

Our Mission

We’re not just teaching people how to weave baskets—we’re helping to weave something much bigger: a community grounded in tradition, creativity, and care. More than just a skill, basketry connects people—our workshops foster meaningful experiences, shared stories, and lasting bonds. We prioritize ethical teaching, cultural respect, and sustainable harvesting practices that honor the earth and its traditions.

Our Roots

To preserve and pass on the ancient art of basket weaving by offering meaningful, hands-on learning rooted in cultural respect, sustainability, and community. Born from a love of traditional craftsmanship and a desire to reconnect with nature, Basketry Traditions grew from local gatherings into a growing community of learners, artisans, and cultural keepers.

What We Value

We value more than just technique—we value tradition, intention, and connection. Our approach to teaching is slow and mindful, with an emphasis on respecting the land, the materials, and the cultures that have sustained basketry for centuries. Every strand woven is a gesture of patience and presence. We strive to create a welcoming, inclusive space where learners feel supported, culture is honored, and creativity flourishes. Because to us, a basket is never just a basket—it’s a vessel of heritage, heart, and human connection.
