Discover the wonder of growing your own baskets and plant your own willow garden!
We currently grow 40 varieties of heritage willow on our small specialty farm in SW Wisconsin and seasonally offer live stake cuttings for sale from our licensed plant nursery.
​
All our willows are grown using organic methods, and we strive to offer the highest quality, healthiest cuttings you can find on the market. Almost all of our willows are varieties from northern Europe that have been grown and selected by basketmakers over generations to perform well for basketry. Many of our selections are also suitable for multipurpose uses like living structures, hedgerows, windbreaks, silvopasture, remediation, ornamental purposes, and more.​

note
​​
Our cuttings are 10-14 inches long and the thickest we can make them, depending on the variety. Bundles come in reusable 2-gallon foodsafe bags, and each cutting has a clear slype on one side to indicate the planting side on the butt-end. Variety bundles are always oriented all in one direction with the label right-side-up for easy planting orientation. All packages come with a detailed growing instructions sheet.
​
With so many new nurseries popping up each year, it can be hard to know what to look for in a good live stake cutting. Always be sure and ask about cutting size when ordering from a new nursery to ensure you will grow healthy plants with high success rates.​​
