| Ordering
from Wassledine |
|
We
run a small farm in
Upper Gravenhurst, a beautiful
village in the middle
of Bedfordshire, UK and aim to make a
living by producing high quality products in a way that
impacts the environment as little as possible.

Pretty
much everything we produce needs to be pre-ordered, which means that it
can be made to suit you exactly.
A great deal of our products are sold locally to customers who can pick
things up from us here in Gravenhurst, However, we are pleased to post
things by Royal Mail where possible and we are now using a
courier that can get most products to you wherever you may be.
Royal Mail will deliver smaller parcels up to 1.5m long. We can
therefore mail many baskets, short willow bundles and smaller obelisks,
etc. and Royal Mail tends
to be cheaper than a courier but couriers can be better to get your
stuff more quickly and on the day you want it.
Having said that, it can
be fairly expensive to move large things around, especially if they are
longer than about 2m. However, things are always changing and if you
are after something we produce, please contact us - we'll get back to
you with a price very quickly.
We can deliver, which can
be reasonable value for large orders but less so for a few
sticks.
We welcome collection in person by prior arrangement - it's always
interesting to meet people and find out what they are up to. Some
products are large, or more likely long and the hazel has a very small
amount of green algae on it which although completely natural and
harmless, can mark pristine car seats.
Please contact us to find out if what you want can be delivered.

Willow
Cut during the winter months and stored if unsold. Can be ordered
anytime. Dry willow may be available throughout the year. Fresh willow
is available from December through April.
We welcome a pre-arranged visit if you want to see the willow before
you make a decision. If you'd to see the full beauty of the colours you
need to come in November or December. |

Hazel
Like the willow, we cut hazel during the winter months, which makes
sticks and products available from early spring. Contact us any time
though as we quite often have hazel in stock throughout the year.

Red
Poll Beef
We
are small producers and kill a very limited number of animals each
year. It's mostly sold very locally. If you would like to be notified
of our next fresh beef date, please contact us or click on the
sign up button (above). Currently we don't accept advance orders until we have a date for
an animal to be slaughtered.
We only deliver within
Gravenhurst but welcome collection in person by prior arrangement.

Storytelling
You
need to speak to Jane - she will have loads of ideas to talk over with
you about how she could add some magic to your event.
Jane specialises in countryside and the environment. We can get a price quite
quickly for whatever you have in mind. Go to our storytelling
page to find out more.
