Casterton WI welcomes members and visitors to a talk and demonstration of making oak swill baskets by Owen Jones.

Owen was taught to make swills in 1988. He will talk about these baskets, which are traditional to the southern Lake District and have been made in this area for centuries, and show us how they are made. Owen, who has been coppicing in the Rusland valley for the last 25 years, will also talk about the art of coppicing.
