CULTIVATING A
CUT FLOWER GARDEN

There is nothing more rewarding than planning and planting your own garden, and enjoying beautiful blooms that you harvest all season long! Whether you have a big backyard, a tiny patio with containers, or something in between, this workshop is designed to give you the skills that you need to begin and maintain a successful cut flower garden. Instructor Claire Smith of Good Vibes Garden will start by highlighting the fundamentals of creating a cut flower garden. Then, you’ll sink your hands into some potting soil to sow seeds of cut flower favorites, which you’ll be able to take home and transplant in your own garden!
