DAMASCUS, PA – Farm Arts Collective will host a flower pick and design workshop on Saturday July 20th. The day begins with coffee at the new Agri-Cultural Center on Willow Wisp Organic Farm followed by a led tour by flower farmers, Tannis Kowalchuk and Jess Beveridge. 

Attendees will visit the annual and perennial flower fields and learn best practices in growing cut flowers, hear about favorite Willow Wisp varieties, discover what’s trending in markets, and get tips on post-harvest methods.  

Each participant will select and cut their own flowers from an acre of over 35 varieties of annuals and perennials. 

The workshop group will then return to the barn for an arranging session with instructions on flower design choices that consider color, shape, texture, and stem placement to build a dynamic and gorgeous arrangement. Participants will take home their flower design.

Participants are asked to bring their own vase and clippers (clippers will be provided if needed).  This event is rain or shine. The cost of class (including flowers) is $45.  Register online at www.farmartscollective.org

Farm Arts Collective Agri-Cultural Center is located at 38 Hickory Lane, Damascus, PA 18415
