Fall Arrangements & Worshops
Fall Wreath
Looking for a way to add decoration to a table top, a wall space or more? Look no further, head out to Piscasaw Gardens and join us for a fall wreath making class. We will be taking fresh greens such as salal, huckleberry, rosemary, eucalyptus and binding them to a metal wreath frame, the wreath materials will vary month to month. Our designers will be leading you through this hands-on class. You can choose a unique pattern for your design and even add in fun touches of dried florals to make your wreath unique.
These arrangements will then naturally dry on the wreath frame and will last throughout the fall season. The addition of the fresh to dried herbs helps the wreath maintain a fresh herby fall scent for several weeks to months. If the wreath is designed to have a center space, gourds or candles can be placed into the center to make a table-top centerpiece. The design options are endless!
We will have gourds, mini pumpkins, large pumpkins, popcorn, light refreshments and other farm items available for purchase during the workshop.
This is a great chance for you to grab your girlfriends, your favorite bottle of wine, and head out to the farm! The class is open to all age groups, but this class may be hard for small hands. There is plenty of space on our farm to spread out and relax with your gal group, your family, or for date night.
If making a wreath is not in your wheel house, don't fret, you can also purchase finished greenery wreaths. If the class time does not work for you but you still want the wreath supplies and a basic instruction booklet we are also providing grab n' go, ready made kits for you to do on your own time.
