- Our year starts with harvesting willow. from then on it is all down to grading willow, sorting by size. This year I also got to do make some interesting living willow projects and I show you how I took care of our living willow fence. And I plant some willow for pollarding.

I'd love to see that arch after even just 1 year! Progress shots of longer term projects are so rare in willow RUclips videos that even an unsuccessful project would be of great value to see
Would love to see an update on how the structures look a year later!
Я вам могу сказать что из трёх веточек заплетеных в косичку. У меня теперь высокое дерево. Плакучая ива. За 10 лет или чуть более выросло. Самый сильный рост пошёл после 5,6 года
Me too, this is very interesting. The play areas could serve also as little natural yurts, I am amazed at this technique.
I've never seen anything like this in my life this is amazing..... This looks like a set of a movie or something...
🤣
Captivating!
The willow play tunnel is especially cool
I’ve only watched two of your videos and I can’t wait to watch more! They’re full of beautiful hard work and lovely sounds of you working mixed with nice music. Thank you! I hope you keep creating
Amazing work! The way you work with willow and your choice of music makes me feel at peace. Thank you for sharing your talent🙌

I want to be a kid again just to be able to play in those structures. Beautiful music, btw. I learned a new word today: pollarding. Thank you for the video.
This is so beautiful, thank you for sharing. Obviously a wet part of the world… don’t know where it is, but it’s brilliant. I ove your work with nature!
It's a pity Willow are considered to be a dreadful weed in Sydney. They do a very good job of holding creek banks together. Thanks for the video. The work is so beautiful. I would find that weaving very relaxing.
Your videos are a treasure. Not only for the enjoyment and usefulness for us viewers, but seeing how traditional crafts are commony forgotten your video collection is precious and of immense cultural importance.
(Not to say "no one is doing crafts"! A lot of people, including us young ones, are crafting away happily, and also documenting and teaching each other online - but often with new materials and techniques, and it's important to document the nuances and details of all crafts! Like, how to plan and tend willow beds)
Plus it’s all stuff found in nature, you don’t have to go buy everything at the stores except for the few items every gardener needs….
A person with inner beauty is capable of creating beauty for others. Thank you for the aesthetic pleasure that I received from your painstaking work.
Sincerely from Russia😊
Did not expect to wake up and fall in love with willow weaving.
In a world struggling to call technology sustainable this is refreshing that you're still building 100% sustainable
Don't be ridiculous, fencing is the least problem of sustainibility and all the other structures are useless in a public urban setting - even the playground, which is a potential safety hazard if a homeless person, drug adict or pervert crawls in.
@YamiKisara I can relate, my sons school had a couple of drug addicted people break in during school hours, talk about breach of trust.
I so enjoy watching your very informative willow tutorials. I am somewhat new to willow planting and will receive my willow stems in the spring to plant out in my area of Tolland, Connecticut, USA. Thank you, Hanna, for all your help and hints. The information on willow type as relates to color, grading and size is appreciated! Will tune in for basket weaving tutorials as well. I also plan to use my willow harvest for wreath making. Sending love from the U.S. Thanks again! ❤
you work very hard hanna i bet you sleep well looks like you work long hours good luck with your work great skills
Fascinating. What a wonderful artistic ability and creative eye. You have fine tuned your processes and the finished products are stunning! Loved watching you create.
I would love to see how you maintain one of your fences or arches after a few years of getting established and growing like crazy as willow does.
Your work and your videos are so uplifting Hanna. I just LOVE the children's play structure...Heck, I wanna play in that myself! Will be so neat to see when it fills in with it's windows, little rooms, tunnels and open area. Magical!
I'm so glad your channel popped up this morning. Your work is so beautiful. So comforting to watch you work and make your beautiful artwork from nature. Takes us away from all the terrible things going on in our world for awhile. Thank you. I'm subscribing for sure. Darlene from Tennessee USA ❤😊
You're some woman Hanna. Brilliant to see your play structures coming together, they look fabulous, look forward to seeing how they grow in. Thanks so much for sharing, so inspiring.
It's an art alright ! Needs to be taught for craft in schools.
Oh Hanna your willow work is so beautiful, I’m so glad RUclips shared this video. I have always admired willow and it’s potential for many use! Thank you for sharing your amazing skills. Agape’ NanaB
Amazing. I wish we could do that in our garden, but I live in a very harsh climate with extreme temps and very little water. Beautiful!
I want to be as cool as that. Thanks for sharing.
😀
That's some groovy music!
Hola, me encantó tu vídeo, lo encontré recién. Un abrazo fraterno desde Talcahuano, Chile 🇨🇱 😊
Прямо эльфийские постройки❤❤❤
Ohhh, das gefällt mir sehr ❤Herzdank für die Erinnerung und Inspirationen 💞🌄💫💚💫💙
Beautiful Archway!! I was thinking of doing a living willow dome, with a similar technique! (But I may cover mine with soil to make it root and become solid and winterproof!) But first I have to grow the rods. All the best from the west coast of Canada!
Interesting! Keep us posted! Xx
this is refreshing, people like you give me hope
Things like this can restore land and recover ecologic functions the world over.
Now if we can get some of the eco nutjobs to do stuff like this instead of causing mayhem in cities would be a great start.
I would love to know more about your knowledge of pollarding and what other tree types are good for it.
дуже гарно. Дякую.
That was so tranquil thank you for sharing such peaceful beauty
finaly I made it!!!😊 Thank you for Inspiration Hanna. I have shared your Video in my Video as original idea. Best regards! Marta
Beautiful! Thank you! I just ordered lots of willow cuttings back in October, waiting for them to arrive. I had only a vague idea of what to do with them, but your video has given me lots of ideas! I’m glad to see I’m not the only one who likes to garden in a dress as well.
What kind of willow species please.?I have to get started right away!
Dear Hanna, thank you for your videos, I am inspired and learning from you. Now I am also planting my willow to create the same beautiful and reliable baskets. (Sorry if I wrote it wrong. Translated through Google translator).
Delighted to hear!
Love the smell of rained on willow! Beautiful, soothing video.
Super dry where I live 😢 I wish I could grow willow. What you do is gorgeous!
