Workshops and Events
At different times of year, I offer a range of workshops and events to share my passion for growing flowers and creating decorative beauty from natural, seasonal materials. These range from making fresh and dried wreaths and flower crowns to tulip picking, flower arranging, and botanical pumpkin decoupage using pressed flowers from the garden.
​
Details of dates and local venues will be listed on this page. ​ Book a place on a workshop using the form linked below, or get in touch with Rachel at byhomesteadgrown@gmail.com with any questions.

Living Spring Wreath Workshops
£60 per person
21st March, 7 - 9:30pm
22nd March, 2:30 - 5pm
23rd March, 2:30 - 5pm - Unavailable
at The Random Apple Co., Swanscoe, Macclesfield
​
Welcome the brighter, lengthening days by joining me to make a beautiful, fresh, 'living' wreath in the gorgeously rustic barn of the Random Apple Co. on the rural edge of Macclesfield.
​
Settle into the session with home-made cake and juice pressed on the farm from the fruit of the heritage orchards.
​Using British-grown seasonal flowers, we will moss-wrap the roots of flowering plants and tie them, along with spring bulbs and foliage, to a cushioned base of moss. Complete it with the final touches of hand-blown quail eggs, feathers and twigs, and the finished wreath you'll take home will continue to grow and flower beautifully for several weeks to come.
No experience is needed and all materials, tuition, and help will be provided.​
Why not gift a workshop voucher for Mother's Day, or to a friend or family member for some other special occasion.
Places are limited to 12 people per workshop, so do book soon!
