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.
