Workshop Details
Workshop Overview
On the farm, planning the festive table for Christmas dinner includes the table arrangement. We enjoy selecting suitable evergreen foliage from the hedgerows and unusual containers to create a table centrepiece. We always include a candle which we light to remember those who can’t be with us. Again, we are delighted to be working with creative team at The Florist of Cardiff to provide a workshop that will enable you to make your own Christmas Table Arrangement and impress friends and relatives with your floristry skills.
