Your morning in the garden:
Join us in the garden for my favorite day of the year (well, close anyway -- we can celebrate all weekend)! Celebrate the summer solstice with flowers, food, and friends. We will start the morning with coffee or tea and a stroll through the garden, followed by introductions and time to set an intention for the day.
We will begin our creative process by creating a flower arrangement that will serve as inspiration for sketching, painting, and photography. I will do a sketching and painting demonstration and share some of my favorite photo tips. There will be photo stations in the greenhouse in an my studio for you to photograph your arrangement, and Keri will be available to answer questions and talk about using edible flowers in her dishes.
Our morning will conclude with a special, botanically inspired lunch prepared by Keri Innes.
