Mosey around the PEAS Farm and discuss which flowers best support pollinators with pollinator expert Rye. Learn some tips for growing and caring for flowers with flower artist Tara, and finish the workshop with a tutorial on flower arrangements and some time to pick and bring home your own bouquet!
