When frosts arrive and our harvest season wraps up in early Fall, it’s exciting to know we have dried flower waiting for us inside. We squirreled away and dried plenty of flowers, grains, foliage and herbs throughout the growing season.
Dried Flower Wreaths are especially fun to put together and I’m loving the many colors, shapes and textures of dried flowers we have to design with.
We’re offering something new this season - Dried Flower Wreath Workshop(s)! Our first workshop sold out quick, but we may offer another one in December. If this is something you would be interested in - click on the button below to be notified when we schedule our next workshop. More workshop info is available below.
Dried Flower Wreaths are extra especial in that they can last for years when cared for properly. Hang them inside in a location that is out of direct sunlight, humidity and heat. They make such lovely and unique gifts for the holidays, birthdays, weddings, etc.
We are designing Dried Flower Wreaths and Dried Flower Bouquets in various color palettes for our Upcoming Holiday Events. Where to find us?

We will begin the workshop with an introduction about our farm and go over the flowers we grow and select for drying. We will go over how we process dried flowers, design tips and provide a wreath making demonstration. Then you will get to select the dried floral ingredients and create your own Dried Flower Wreath.
I will be available to help assist and answer questions as you design and assemble your wreath. The workshop will run 2.5 to 3 hours. All the materials are provided - floral wire, wire wreath round, dried flowers and flower snips for prepping stems. We’ll provide a box, if needed, for safely transporting your wreath home.
