Often basket weaving is pushed aside when it comes to the basics of survival or wilderness living of any kind. But a typical homesteader might be surprised in regards to the usefulness of such a craft.

A typical survivalist might wonder what they can do with a homemade basket but, depending on the style, you can use it for anything from gathering wild mushrooms to hauling small supplies in and out of your bug-out building!

And what is really nice is anyone can make a basket like this once they are taught a few easy steps.
