M I L L – M O M E N T S Today, we were thrilled to welcome some very special guests from Oldfield Primary for an exciting tour of our mill here at Wyedean in Haworth. The young explorers enjoyed a behind-the-scenes look at how we create some of our iconic items, and they certainly brought their creativity along too! The children had fun trying on our collection of military hats, climbing aboard our life-size horse, and turning leftover materials into brilliant collage designs. 🎨 The smiles and laughter were infectious, and it was wonderful to see their imaginations run wild! Check out the photos to see some of their fantastic creations and fun moments! 📸 We hope the children and teachers enjoyed their time with us as much as we did. Thank you, Oldfield Primary, for a memorable day! 😊 #CreativeKids #OldfieldPrimarySchool #MillTour #TextileArt #CommunityFun #BronteCountry #WeavingMill

🍏 H A P P Y - A P P L E - D A Y 🍎 Today, we’re not just celebrating the delicious bounty of apples – we’re also celebrating our wonderful community here in Haworth! Recently, we marked our 60th anniversary by planting 30 apple and cherry trees in Haworth Park – a beautiful way to give back to the place that has supported us for so many years. These trees were planted by the council on our behalf and will bloom each year during our anniversary month, creating a special place for all of us to visit and enjoy. 🌸 About UK Apple Day: Started in 1990 in Covent Garden, Apple Day has grown into a global celebration of apples, culture and food diversity. From local fairs to cider tastings, people come together to celebrate everything apple-related. Whether fresh, juiced or baked, it’s all about the joy of apples! Did you know? “An apple a day keeps the doctor away!” 🍏 A timeless reminder of how important fresh produce is in our daily lives. We’re so happy by the local response to our tree planting and can’t wait to see these trees blossom year after year – for our team, and for all of you! Have you seen the new trees in Haworth Park yet? Let us know what you think in the comments! 🌳👇 This video shows the planting in action and how fantastic the trees already look! 🎥 #UKAppleDay #CommunityRoots #Wyedean60 #AppleTreePlanting #HaworthCommunity #SustainableFuture #HaworthPark #BronteCountry

M E E T - T H E - T E A M 👋 J E A N I E Introducing Jeanie, our skilled production technician whose work life revolves around the loom. She has been with us at Wyedean Weaving since June 4th, 2018, and her deep-rooted passion for textiles is truly inspiring. 🧵 From a young age, Jeanie has been immersed in weaving thanks to her parents. As she puts it: “Both my parents were in textiles, so right from being a youngster, that’s all I’ve known. I’ve been around looms nearly all my life. It’s part of my DNA.” Fluent in the unique language of the looms, Jeanie spots even the tiniest imperfections with ease. “We may simply pass by a warp and immediately notice an out-of-place end. It's a terminology that represents our entire way of life,” she explains. Jeanie's work includes making Fleur De Lis Lace for Infantry Officer Drummers jackets as well as white cotton leading ropes for the King’s horses. Fun fact: she can walk down a room eighteen times to achieve different lengths of ropes, helping her hit her daily step goal! 🚶♀️ In her past, Jeanie was known for making tailored gamekeeping jackets for Harrods, showcasing her keen eye for quality and detail. Her exceptional skills have earned her international acclaim, including the renowned yellow stripe on the Canadian Mounted Police trousers. Thousands of meters of her work are produced annually, showcasing her dedication. 🌍👏 Join us in celebrating Jeanie’s remarkable contribution to the world of weaving! 💛 #MasterWeaver #TextileArt #WyedeanWeaving #ArtisanSpotlight #WeavingTradition
