The 250th Large Trug with Protector is a commemorative heirloom piece created to celebrate 250 years of American spirit, craftsmanship, and tradition. Designed in a striking patriotic bunting weave, this special edition basket is made for everything summer brings-from garden harvests and farmers markets to porch gatherings and holiday picnics.

Handwoven from maple wood, the 15"L x 12"W x 5"H trug features a sturdy static wood handle, a red, white, and blue woven pattern inspired by classic Americana bunting, and detailing that makes this piece truly collectible. The words “Land of the Free” and “Home of the Brave” are burned into either end of the basket as a tribute to the enduring American story.

Each trug includes a gold “America 250 1776–2026” collector’s tag along with a commemorative "America 250" keepsake tag honoring this historic milestone. A full-length protector is also included to help keep the interior clean and protected through every harvest, market run, celebration, and seasonal adventure.

Created in honor of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, this basket is designed to be more than functional — it’s a keepsake piece meant to carry memories for generations to come.

This basket is soooo perfect!

"This basket is soooo perfect! The lighter stain pops the patriotic stripes, the shape makes access easy, the depth, the double handles! It's a generous size! I am beyond happy with this purchase! ❤️🤍💙 I love everything about it!"

Sunshine L. (4/5)

"Not the quality I would expect from Longaberger. I own many LB baskets and love them all but this one. . . not great. Flimsy construction, sspecially on the red, white, and blue striped area--basically the entire base of the basket."

Liz (2/5)

Love the basket BUT it

"Love the basket BUT it arrived without the gold commemorative tag. I have been waiting to see how I can return it for a new one. I have received a message from customer service but no far-no resolution."

Shauna L. (2/5)

"Love Longaberger but this basket was extremely slow to arrive, about 6 weeks. Another on the way, hoping this one does not take as long. 😊"
