    This is incredibly helpful! Thank you so much. I’m going to try this in my tiny urban garden in Oakland California.

    That's great. Presumably you could drill into a plank to make longer lengths of free-standing hurdles, twisting the ends back into the weave? I've lots of willows and I cut them back in winter. I get 3 or 4 foot lengths of new growth to use in the garden. The uprights often take root!

    Is that fresh or presoaked willow?

    Could I use thicker willow 'posts' or would they just rot or possibly start growing? We have a lot of willow here and I need strength for my wattles as they are going to be holding soil in for my raised garden beds. Thanks:)

    Are the weavers dried first, then soaked?

    Thank you for the tutorial, I really want to try this one! A question - how long does this type of hurdle last?

      I'm in Canada, This Summer I made a wattle fence, It looks beautiful and priceless, I heard that It can be expected to last up to 10 years depending on level of exposure to wind and where they are in placed. Yes, you should try to make it....

      @@tbaykimchilover3390 I am hoping to make some of my first fences this year in Peterborough! I have to ask though, are the willow canes first dried and then weaved? Or is it supposed to be woven green and allowed to dry in position?
      Thanks for any advise!

      @@VE3AVA Hi Jordan! I made my wattle fence last spring for my garden and private screen fence for my deck . It turned out better than I expected. I used fresh skinny hazelnut branches since they are flexible( available around my cottage area for free). Probably it is a good idea to use fresh willow canes to weave so that you can twist or bend them around easily without breaking them . To keep canes fresh you can put them into a pale of water. It was really fun making for me, and the fence looks beautiful and one of a kind. I hope yours can turn out good too ... let me know how it turned out if you made one...
