Cut Flower Arranging

Love to have keep some flower bouquets in the house? Want to learn how to make gorgeous arrangements? Join us for one of upr upcoming classes and learn the art of arranging.

Each session will feature the best of the blooms from Bedrock's own cutting garden. The ever-changing cutting garden will surprise you with new delights each time. During the class you'll learn about selecting color palettes, using greens and grasses and other creative approaches—all inspired by what’s in bloom. Bring a favorite vase from home (see below for details) and discover new ways to arrange flowers while soaking up the beauty of the gardens. This program is a great way to learn new arranging skills, make new friends, and head home with a beautiful and affordable bouquet.

Flower Arranging Dates:

During the July class, we will create an arrangement using various types of flower frogs in a low bowl/ vessel. Design will incorporate Ikebana style/ techniques with a maximalist spin on it. We will use flowers from our cutting garden and forage if necessary. Bring your own low profile vessel and pair of snips. Flower frogs provided.

August 13 with Erin Prawoko

August will feature techniques for making a tall vase centerpiece using what's in bloom. Participants should bring their own vessel (pitcher, vase, etc.), and a good pair of snips. The workshop will focus on using foliage for shape, structure, and framing. We will also explore techniques for foliage manipulation using vines, grasses and any other interesting greenery we find on the property.
