Cost: Free. No RSVP needed
Description: CBBG needs members to lead its winter willow harvest. Come and be trained and sign up for a harvest session. Caring for the willow plot (including harvest season) is the way that we are able to provide local willow for upcoming classes, and for members to supply material for personal projects. Even if you were a lead last year, we strongly recommend you participate in this year’s training in order to refresh your memory on the harvesting methods. And it’s always fun to get together.
What you need:
● Dress for cold and/or wet weather. Bring warm insulated gloves, rain gear, hat, sitting/kneeling pad.
● Bring pruners and loppers, if you have them. If you don’t, the Guild has several that can be used.
● Bring lunch, water, any sustenance you need. The Our Table Store may not be open during willow lead training and harvest.
● **Very important--Please bring your calendar so that you can sign up to lead those harvest days this winter!
Harvest dates where you will be leading are January weekends and the first weekend in February, 10am-2pm.
Directions: Our Table is at 13390 SW Morgan Rd., Sherwood, OR 97140. As you enter their long driveway leading to the store the road forms a “T” in front of the store. Turn right and go past the hoop houses, composting area, a few rows of blueberries, all on your left. Then you will see the plot itself which has a chain link fence and is adjacent to a red building with a small parking area, also on your left.
