Wreath Workshop

At the height of bloom of our French lavender, join Nicole of Spadaflora Botanical Artistry to make a wreath from freshly harvested Phenomenal long-stemmed lavender. The bloom time of this lavender is within 2 weeks, and this is a very special opportunity that only comes once a year.

As a part of our workshop, you will pick some lavender right out of the field. It takes a LOT of lavender to create this, and so the lion’s share of it will be fresh cut and ready for you to fashion into your wreath. There is nothing like the color and scent of fresh lavender and it will dry beautifully, lasting well into the next year. Nicole will guide you to adhere it properly and distribute it nicely around your 14inch wreath support.

Lavender lemonade and lavender shortbread cookies will be served to nibble and sip.

Be sure to take the time to enjoy a stroll around the farm. It is the most beautiful time of year!

This workshop is limited to 8 attendees. In the event of rain, the workshop will be held in our Workshop Space.
