But, let's think of other great flowers to use during this winter month! NOTE: Participants may create a “Make Along” design with Lynette. A materials list with items to be gathered will be available here soon or at the county extension office.

We will go “Back to School” as we review of the basic use and care of floral tools and the importance of floral foods and proper conditioning of plant materials. In our floral design work, we will be using plenty of summer blossoms along with vegetables and herbs.

Autumn is just around the corner, and along with it comes many opportunities for creating seasonal floral decor for our homes.

This is an "I Spy and Design" project. Spend time with Lynette in June and July to develop your "I Spy and Design" abilities. Mississippi's flower gardens, yards, roadsides, woodlands, and fields are filled with some of the world's most prized floriculture crops. We will identify, condition, and design with a number of those materials.

Change it to this: Lynette's presentation is live from Rankin County with area participants in attendance. She will incorporate locally grown and gathered plant materials into her designs as well as simple vintage containers to showcase the natural designs.
