Cut Flower Arranging

| Join us for a hands-on cut flower workshop. Allison Creel of Blue Rooster Farms will bring her best seasonal blooms. You’ll learn how to harvest, condition, and arrange flowers straight from their field. She will also explain the farm’s transition from summer blooms to fall blooms and then discuss what they do to prep for cool season flowers. All materials are provided, and you’ll leave with your own beautiful arrangement. This workshop is for all levels. Please bring your own snips. $35 supply fee included. Instructor: Allison Creel Allison, along with her husband Kirk, own Blue Rooster Farms, a flower farm located in Shelby County—just down the road from Birmingham. They grow for designers, special events, weekly subscriptions and seasonal U-Pick workshops and experiences. There are 30 to 40 different varieties of flowers cultivated each year which means at any given time they have over 10,000 plants in the ground. What is grown is planned at least a year in advance so there is enough time to order the seeds and prep the soil properly. All their flowers are nurtured with sustainable practices, without the use of synthetic chemicals and always with their customers in mind. They are growing joy, one flower at a time.
