Barker Central School District Community Ed

During this class farmer-florist-herbalist Aurora of Schul Farmstead will lead you learning how to grow flowers in your garden, design a bouquet, & create a floral herbal tea with harvests from your garden. She'll teach you what annual and perennial varieties thrive in Western New York, how to source seedlings and start seeds, and provide some examples of garden layouts and spacing based on square foot garden methods. This is all based on her experience as a community garden manager, a garden in her backyard and her 6 years of commercial farming experience. With flowers harvested from her spray-free farm in Cambria, she'll teach you the 6 floral elements needed in bouquet design, while she walks you step by step in creating a bouquet you can take home with you. Then she'll guide you in learning & taste testing edible flowers and herbs grown on her farm to help you create your very own unique herbal & floral tea blend that you can take home with you.

There is no Senior discount for this class.
