Join floral designer Molly Stanley for a gentle, meditative journey into the art of floral arranging. Petals & Presence is a unique workshop experience that combines the beauty of floral design with the grounding practices of intention-setting, mindfulness, and symbolism. Together, we’ll create meaningful floral arrangements using organic, farm-grown flowers, harvested by Molly and her husband from their homestead flower farm in Oxford, Maine.
