Willows and Wetlands Visitor Centre, Educational museum and country house in Stoke St Gregory, England.
The Willows and Wetlands Visitor Centre encompasses 80 acres of willow fields, processing yards, and workshops dedicated to traditional basket making techniques.
The Coate family established their willow cultivation business in 1819, expanding into basket making in 1904, maintaining the same location through generations.
The center displays traditional basket making processes, local agricultural methods, and maintains a collection of willow artifacts in its dedicated museum section.
Visitors can explore guided tours, watch educational videos, enjoy meals at The Lemon Tree café, and purchase locally made willow products from Monday to Saturday.
The facility produces both traditional willow items and willow charcoal, continuing a manufacturing practice that dates back to the 1960s.
