Nurture with Nature – Blooms & Brews: Native Bouquet & Herbal Tea
July 19 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Dive deeper into the “Nurture with Nature” series and join us for a July session where you’ll cultivate beauty and wellness!
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll discover the art of crafting stunning fresh bouquets using professional arranging techniques. We’ll utilize a beautiful mix of native plant materials harvested directly from our garden, combined with specially selected pre-found elements. You’ll learn how to properly prepare and display your floral creations, and even how to dry them for long-lasting decoration!
We’ll highlight three incredible native plants, teaching you how to identify and incorporate them into both your home and landscape. Beyond the blooms, you’ll also learn to create your very own custom herbal tea mixture featuring these beneficial plants for daily enjoyment.
You’ll leave with your own gorgeous, hand-arranged bouquet and a personalized herbal tea blend, ready to infuse your life with nature’s goodness.
Working with the healing power of plants can help to decrease stress and anxiety, process grief, and improve overall well-being. Combining eco-mindfulness and creative activities, the workshops in this series invite participants to learn about the uses and roles of specific native plants through the lens of natural cycles.
Workshops are led by Kate Irvine, a licensed Therapeutic Horticulture Practitioner and mixed media artist. Participants are welcome to attend one, some, or all four 2025 sessions.
This session will take place in Nature’s Sanctuary, one of two green burial habitats at Laurel Hill West.
