Workshop
Saturday, August 3 at 4:15 PM
In this workshop, we will explore the idea of rootedness while also learning how to make seed paper. Using native wildflower seeds, the seed paper created in this workshop can be planted at a later date to grow into flowers that are great for the local environment.
