About the event
Celebrate the beauty of Southern Vermont with a hands‑on floral design class featuring locally grown flowers from Full Moon Blooms in Londonderry, VT and blooms from Loralee’s own garden. This workshop is a relaxed, creative escape and a true learning experience — you’ll build skills in growing, cutting, and arranging flowers that you can use again and again.
We’ll guide you through choosing focal flowers, building structure with foliage, and creating natural movement in your design. You’ll work directly in a provided vase while learning simple, repeatable techniques that make your arrangement feel full, balanced, and effortlessly elegant.
Your ticket includes:
• A curated selection of fresh, locally grown flowers
• A vase to design in and take home
• All tools and materials
