The climate here is ideal for willow plants - enough moisture (simply called "rain"by some people) all year round, intermingled with periods of glorious sunshine and blue sky, giving the willows what they need togrow into lovely strong rods.
Willow trees ("withies") have for
a long time been part of the local flora,
as is mirrored in local place names like "Withybush".
Besides being used for baskets of different types, lobster pots were
the main product manufactured from withies in this area.

Sadly, the last willow
grower has given up his business several decades ago, his willow beds
long being abandoned. We are here to pick up the thread again and once more produce willows in Pembrokeshire, carrying on with the tradition. |
