Workshops

Wednesday, Oct. 9 — A Pumpkin Floral Arrangement class will use a pie pumpkin to hold an arrangement of fresh, locally grown flowers. The cost is $50 for Manor House members, and $55 for non-members.

Tuesday, Oct. 29 — An Heirloom Pumpkin Arrangement class will use a beautiful specialty pumpkin to hold an arrangement of dried flowers. The arrangement should last a month or more, making it a great idea for a Thanksgiving dinner centerpiece. The cost is $52 for Manor House members, and $57 for non-members.
