A Valentine garden adventure in flower arranging, sips, brunch from The Butcher’s Daughter and, of course, chocolate!
Just in time for Valentine’s Day! Bring your love (…or treat yourself) and experience this creative, interactive workshop learning to gather and arrange your own mini bouquets from our cut flower beds and edible flower beds. Gift your creation or treat yourself!
No experience needed, all curious humans welcomed as our fearless leader, master gardener, culinary grower and owner of The Cook’s Garden, Geri Miller, guides you through a series of “learning-by-doing” exercises to get your creative juices flowing and expand your flower arranging skills.
The Butcher's Daughter and The Cook's Garden will bring you a very special Valentine's Day "interactive" brunch that will include some of TBD fan favorites embellished with botanicals from the garden and greenhouse (some you pick yourself!).
You will embrace the magic of this workshop - flowers in one hand, a Mimosa in the other - as we take you on a unique journey that will fill your heart and feed all your senses!
