Bushel BasketAmish Woven Wooden Garden Carrier, One Bushel Size

• Handcrafted Quality: Handwoven by an Old Order Amish family on the Iowa-Missouri border and signed by the very hands that wove it. No two baskets are exactly alike.
• True One Bushel Size: Filled to the top, this bushel basket holds a full bushel of produce, twice what a half bushel basket carries. If you grew up hauling bushel baskets at the orchard, this is that basket.
• Room for the Whole Pick: Measures 19 1/2 inches long, 15 1/2 inches wide, and 10 inches tall, with tapered woven sides that rest comfortably against your hip on the walk from the garden rows to the kitchen.
• Solid Wooden Bottom: The bottom is solid hardwood, so the basket sits flat and steady beside you while you pick and will not sag under a heavy load of tomatoes or apples.
• Built to Carry Weight: A sturdy frame, a reinforced rim, and a tight supportive rattan reed weave let this wooden bushel basket carry heavy produce season after season, with smooth handles that are easy on your hands.
• Three Classic Looks: Choose the Plain natural weave, or add a woven band of color in Wine & Blue or Wine & Green trim.
• Optional Add-Ons: If you like, add a fabric liner in Cream, Wine, Blue, or Green ($19.95), a brass plate engraved the same day with your personalized text ($19.95), or protective feet ($4.95), all optional, right on this page.
• American Heritage: Handwoven in America by the Mast Family, signed by the weaver, backed by our lifetime guarantee, and shipped free to your door.

A bushel basket earns its keep the moment the garden starts giving. This is the basket you carry down the rows when the tomatoes all come ripe in the same week, the one that waits by the back door when a neighbor calls about sweet corn, and the one that rides along to the orchard when the apples come in. The tapered woven sides rest comfortably against your hip while you pick, and the wide open top lets you see everything you have gathered at a glance.

Folks who shop for bushel baskets usually have an exact volume in mind, often from orchard or market days, so here are the plain numbers. This basket measures 19 1/2 inches long by 15 1/2 inches wide by 10 inches tall, and filled to the top it holds one full bushel, double what a half bushel basket carries. The bottom is solid wood so it sits flat and steady on the ground or the porch floor, the rim is reinforced for heavy produce, and the tight weave supports a full load without bending. This listing is newer to our store, so you will not find years of reviews on it yet. What you will find is the handwritten signature of the Amish family member who wove it, and the same lifetime guarantee that stands behind every basket we sell.

Between growing seasons, this wooden bushel basket keeps right on working. It holds potatoes, onions, and squash in the pantry, gathers throws and mittens by the back door, dresses up an entryway or mudroom, and carries goods to the farmers market as easily as it carries them home. If you would like to line it for indoor duty or gift giving, an optional fabric liner in Cream, Wine, Blue, or Green can be added right on this page.

Every one of these baskets is handwoven by the Mast Family in a small workshop on the Iowa-Missouri border, using rattan reed, solid hardwood, and skills passed down through generations. There is no factory and no assembly line, just patient hands and natural materials. Your basket ships free, arrives signed by its maker, and carries our lifetime guarantee. If it is not what you hoped for, returns are no questions asked, though return shipping is yours to cover. This is the kind of basket you buy once and hand down.
