Visite d’une exploitation productrice d’osier “la récolte”

Discover the trade of the basket maker. Séverine and Patrick will show you the different varieties of wicker grown, and give you ideas for garden design. What is wicker? How does it grow? What can we do with it? L’Osier de Gué Droit invites you to take part in a unique wicker-growing experience. You’ll be guided through the facilities and learn about the different stages of cultivation and processing, depending on the season. Harvest time is a busy time on the farm, as the wicker is cut, sorted and graded by height. The different colors of bark bring light and life to the workshop during the winter months. This is an important stage in the transformation of this material.
