Join us at Grand River Cellars on Sunday October 11th to make a living succulent covered mini pumpkin gourd that will remain fresh throughout the rest of this year and beyond! Your instructor Maggie Fusco of The Wood Road Salad Farm in Madison has been making these adorable centerpieces to sell at farmers markets for many years and they are always a hit. Maggie will supply all the materials you need to succeed including the perfect hard shell pumpkins that keep for months, a variety of succulent plants, other fun add-ins, moss, and hot glue. There will be three 1 hour sessions offered with a 10 person limit for each session to make sharing glue guns easier. Sign up for sessions at 3pm, 4pm, or 5pm. If there isn’t room for your group in a given session call the winery to see if there’s room to add one or two more. Plan to take your time, enjoy some wine and food before, during, and after your session! Cost is $40.00 per person which includes all materials plus a glass of wine.
The best thing about these cute little centerpieces is that there is almost no care needed to keep them looking fresh for months. You can even plant the succulents in a pot later.
