Living Willow Farm produces practical and functional baskets for gardening, carrying, home use, handbags, backpacks, fishing creels, laundry, storage, kitchen, serving, and more. Farmer and artist Howard Peller’s basket work uses the natural palette of willow’s colors, textures, and smells to evoke nature’s beauty and divine qualities. Howard intentionally forges a relationship between growing materials and woven pieces produced to satisfy both aesthetic and purposeful needs. Please view a sample of bags, basket work, and small woven structures below – willow baskets and bags are made to order upon request
