Odds Farm brings on the blooms with first wreath workshop
One of Buckinghamshire’s leading rural leisure attractions has a blooming marvellous workshop lined up as it launches its first wreath making event.
Odds Farm Park, near Beaconsfield, is hosting the two-hour adults-only workshop on Wednesday 25 March where guests will have the opportunity to create a spring-inspired floral wreath to decorate their home with.
Louise Winslow, assistant general manager at Odds Farm Park, says: “We’re well-known as a destination for young families so hosting events during the day just for grown-ups is an exciting new area for us and we can’t wait to bring a touch of seasonal crafting to the farm.”
Led by Louise Araguez from Windsor-based florist, Blooming Fabulous, guests will each decorate a moss base with a selection of flowers, foliage and bulbs including tête à tête daffodils, as well as ivy, ruscus, eucalyptus, pistacia and pussy willow to create a vibrant spring wreath. There will also be optional Easter decorations which guests can add to their creations.
Louise Winslow adds: “The workshop is ideal for both beginners and green-fingered experts whether that’s groups of friends looking for a fun and creative morning out, or individuals who fancy learning a new skill.
“It’s all about having a go, getting your hands a little dirty with the moss and bulbs, and leaving with something beautiful that you’ve made yourself.”
All materials are provided and there will be complimentary tea and coffee on arrival. Once guests have completed their spring wreaths they will also have access to the rare breeds farm for the rest of the day.
There are more than 250 animals at Odds with 50 breeds of cattle, pigs, sheep, poultry, goats, ponies and donkeys including a new litter of Tamworth piglets for guests to see.
The spring wreath making workshop at Odds Farm Park takes place on Wednesday 25 March from 10.30am – 12.30pm. The adult-only event is £65.00 per head.
