Meet at the Folk School, then take a short hike to the Trezona Trail to identify and collect invasive plants that harm native botanicals but are beautiful in flower arrangements! A small class size will allow for demonstrations and personalized help as students learn to create a flower arrangement in their hands.
Arrangements will be tied and finished--suitable for a bride or bridesmaid's bouquet or left loose to stand in a vase.

We recommend wearing long sleeves and pants and wearing closed toed shoes to make harvesting as comfortable as possible. Students may also bring a notebook and writing utensil for note taking, a water bottle for hydration, and a positive attitude for learning!
Students are encouraged (but not required) to bring flowers, grasses and interesting weeds from their own gardens and yards. Keep the stems as long as possible and bring them in 5 gallon pails or mop buckets.
This class is recommended to students aged 16 and up. If you have a child younger than 16 who is interested in participating in the class, please reach out to the Ely Folk School before registering. ๐ง๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐ฐ๐น๐ฎ๐๐ ๐ถ๐ป๐ฐ๐น๐๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐น๐ธ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ง๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ฎ ๐ง๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ถ๐น, ๐ฏ๐๐ ๐ณ๐ผ๐น๐ธ๐ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐๐๐ถ๐ฏ๐ถ๐น๐ถ๐๐ ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ ๐บ๐ฎ๐ ๐ฎ๐น๐๐ผ ๐ฑ๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐บ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐น๐ธ ๐ฆ๐ฐ๐ต๐ผ๐ผ๐น ๐๐ผ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ถ๐น๐ต๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฑ.
