The only Willow weaving shop on the UK high street. Creative with Nature specializes in willow sculpture, willow basketry, sales, commissions, teaching courses in weaving and a number of other functional crafts.

Joe Gregory is a willow sculptor and basket maker based in Todmorden, West Yorkshire. She has now been weaving for 15 years, turning her hobby/obsession into a very rewarding career.

With the help of local volunteers Joe now grows over 4000 trees locally for her business and as Creative with Nature develops she has recently bought one of the oldest buildings on Todmorden high street, a large, locally much loved Georgian building with 3 large floors to grow the business into.

Creative with Nature is currently the only Willow weaving shop on the English high street and Joe is using her skills and determination to bring weaving and other traditional crafts back from the brink of extinction and back into peoples everyday lives.

As well as her popular willow sculpture and basketry courses, Joe also hosts weaving courses from some of the best weavers in the UK and holds regular courses with other crafts professionals in Leather work, Mosaic and Stained Glass.
