5 Great reasons to go to the Longaberger Basket Festival at Yankee Candle Village

The Longaberger Basket Festival is coming to Yankee Candle Village!

The Longaberger Basket Festival takes place at Yankee Candle Village in South Deerfield December 6-9. Fans of this line of quality goods will enjoy seeing what’s new, and maybe taking part in the creation of their own basket. There are a limited number of basket-making times available on-site, so please check in at the Longaberger reservation table upon arrival for availability.

Here are 5 great reasons to go…

1. Longaberger’s famous handcrafted baskets are enormously popular. You can weave your very own basket during the Festival for that perfect holiday gift, or keep it for yourself!

2. You’ll work with a talented Longaberger artisan who will help you create your very own limited edition Longaberger Basket, designed specifically for this Festival.

3. There will be loads of Longaberger items for sale as well, like retired baskets, pottery, wrought iron products and much more from Longaberger Homestead.

4. Exclusive edition Longaberger Jar candles will be for sale right next door at Yankee Candle Village.

5. While you’re there, you can grab some great holiday presents or treat yourself, your friends and family to everything Yankee Candle Village has to offer this time of year. Pick out that special festive fragrance while your kids enjoy being a candle maker for a day in Wax Works. Don’t forget to check out the new Man Cave for some delightful – and manly – gifts!
