Foraging, Seasonal, & Wildflower Design - Jul 2026

📅 25 July 2026 | 📍 Rodale Institute, 611 Siegfriedale Road, Kutztown, PA, 19530, United States

Immerse yourself in the beauty of the season as you explore the art of natural floral design.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll create your own vase arrangement using locally grown, seasonal blooms while foraging throughout the farm for unique, textural elements to incorporate into your piece.

Guided by nature and creativity, you’ll learn how to design with movement, balance, and intention—embracing the organic shapes and textures found in the landscape around you. This workshop is perfect for anyone looking to connect with the land while creating something truly one-of-a-kind.
