Dried Fall Wreath Making Workshop
Create a unique 24″ handmade wreath using a combination of locally grown and harvested natural material with Faye. Specific varieties of material will vary, but you can expect to work with: evergreens, grasses, dried flowers, “weed” and perennial plant seed heads. All material is naturally dried and grown from seed, or ethically harvested from roadsides and landscapes in Accord.

She mixes both wild and cultivated plant material to create custom dried wreaths and bouquets. Faye is an artist with a joint-BA in History and Human Rights from Bard College. She is building her home and flower business in Accord with the help of family, friends and the local farming community.
