Traditional Craftsmanship for Modern Foragers &amp; Makers<\/h3>

Each Large Forager’s Trug is lovingly handmade in my Devon workshop using the finest oak bark tanned shoulder leather — a durable, naturally tanned leather prized for its strength, suppleness, and ability to develop a rich, beautiful patina over time. Oak bark tanning is a traditional vegetable tanning method that uses natural tree bark extracts, ensuring an eco-friendly, chemical-free process that respects the hide’s natural character and longevity.<\/p>

The 1-inch wide leather handles are crafted from the same premium leather, attached securely with copper saddler’s rivets renowned for their strength and corrosion resistance. Every stitch is hand-sewn using waxed linen thread with classic saddle stitching techniques — a method inherited from traditional saddlery that ensures exceptional durability and wear resistance.<\/p>

Edges are hand-burnished to seal and smooth the leather fibres, protecting against fraying and moisture ingress, while the natural oils in the leather mean your trug will age gracefully, gaining character with every use. You can also personalise your trug by choosing a contrasting leather strap, adding a bespoke touch to your essential gardening, foraging, or crafting companion.<\/p>

Perfect for Gardeners, Foragers, Farmers Markets &amp; Crafting<\/h3>

Whether you’re gathering armfuls of flowers from your cutting patch, stocking up at your local farmers’ market, foraging wild garlic in spring or packing your favourite sourdough and flask for a picnic on the moors, this large leather trug is built for it all. It’s equally suited for crafters and makers carrying woodworking tools, joinery chisels, or artisan supplies, combining rugged strength with timeless style.<\/p>

Made to Order<\/h3>

Each trug is crafted entirely by hand, using time-honoured leatherworking techniques and high-quality, locally sourced materials. Your trug will be made to order — select your preferred leather colour and add personalised initials if you wish. Read more on the About page.<\/a><\/p>

Please allow 1–2 weeks for the careful crafting of your bespoke leather trug.<\/p>

Leather Care<\/h3>

Your trug will become softer and richer in character with use. To keep it healthy, clean gently and treat it occasionally with my all-natural leather balm<\/a> — designed to match the leather’s natural pH for deep conditioning and weather protection. Read my Leather Care Guide<\/a> or add balm to your order today for lifelong care.<\/p>

More Information

From the moment you use your trug, you and it start to age together. Every day your trug will develop its own unique patina, and every time it gets scratched or nicked, it'll get better and better. Because no two hides are ever the same, each trug will be different from the next and colour changes vary from hide to hide.

48 cm (W) x 28 cm (D) x 20 cm (H)
Leather thickness: 3.0mm–3.5mm
