Wreath Making Workshop with Usal
Cost: $100
About Hannah:
Hannah is a flower farmer and florist growing on Tataviam land in North Hollywood. She has been arranging flowers for a living for almost ten years and farming them for three. Her approach is that of spiritual practice more so than a streamlined process to an end result, listening to the land and plants and working with them for a mutually beneficial outcome.
Objective:
As the days get shorter and we start spending more time indoors it is customary to place wreaths around the house. Over time the meaning of this act has been mostly forgotten but it was originally done as a way of providing nature spirits with a place to reside and protect the home during the dark days of winter. And so, in this workshop we will be working with California natives and locally abundant plants to create unique wreaths to take home and guard against any gloomy days ahead.
What's included:
Plant material, all the tools required, naturally dyed silk ribbon, home baked treats
What to bring:
Any natural objects special to you to accent your finished wreath ie. pine cones from your last camping trip, shells (with holes) from your favorite beach, feathers found on a hike

Floral Arranging Workshop and Farm Tour
Floral Arranging Workshop with Hannah Melde-Webster of Golden Heron, and Farm Tour of Bloomtown Flower Co.
Intro to Flower Gardening and Bouquet Making Workshop
In this workshop, I will be guiding participants as they create a freshly picked bouquet of flowers at my urban flower farm plot in North Hollywood. Group discussions will be focused around what it takes to grow a cut flower garden from seed to harvest. A demo on proper harvesting techniques will be followed by an opportunity for some hands-on experience and with the flowers we cut I will lead the group in designing paper wrapped bouquets to take home.

Volunteer Day
Come start the year out right! If you like getting your hands dirty we could use your help preparing for the 2023 growing season. We will be prepping beds and planting seedlings.
January 7th is also the first day of rose pruning at Rose Lane Farms (our parent farm). Lynne will be demonstrating the proper way to prune rose bushes for winter to get the best blooms in the coming spring.
Please bring water, sun protection, gardening gloves and small garden tools if you have them!
