Taught by basket maker and teacher Erin Cox. Join the conversation about the incredible plants that grow here in the Pacific Northwest and explore ways to identify, gather, store and use them to create baskets and crafts that bring nature inside. Whether you live in an urban, suburban or rural setting there are forage-able crafting and weaving materials to be found. Daylily, daffodil, dandelion, crocosmia, iris, cattails, juncus, bulrush, ivy, honeysuckle, wisteria, dogwood, willow and more! Erin will share about her approach to sustainable and responsible foraging. We should all care for the plants we harvest and preserve the environments they grow in. This discussion is for beginners and you will walk away with some fun easy ways to get started.

Erin found her life's passion in basketry and wild crafting. In 2024 she established a small basketry willow farm in Carnation, Washington, where she invites students to learn, harvest, and engage with the materials. In 2025, she opened Field and Forest Crafts and her own private teaching studio in NE Seattle.
