Anyone interested can create a beautiful autumn flower arrangement at one of three upcoming events offered at the W.K. Kellogg Biological Station.
Classes are led by Sherri Snyder, local artist and owner of Green Goddess Farms, and will meet in McCrary Hall, which is next door to the W.K. Kellogg Manor House. Supplies will be provided. No experience is necessary for the classes; and bringing garden gloves and pruners is helpful, but not required.
WORKSHOPS
Thursday, October 9, 6 to 8 p.m. — The Autumn Pumpkin Floral Arrangement class will use a pie pumpkin to hold an arrangement of fresh, locally grown flowers. The cost is $50 for Manor House members, and $55 for non-members.
Tuesday, October 21, 10 to 11:30 a.m. — The Mum’s the Word class will use locally grown heirloom and vintage mums along with other seasonal stars in a lovely vase arrangement, focusing on how to incorporate different color palettes. The cost is $50 for Manor House members, and $55 for non-members.
Wednesday, October 29, 6 to 8 p.m. — The Heirloom Pumpkin Arrangement class will use a beautiful specialty pumpkin to hold an arrangement of locally grown dried flowers. The arrangement should last a month or more, making it a great idea for a Thanksgiving dinner centerpiece. The cost is $52 for Manor House members, and $57 for non-members.
