This Saturday was our big monthly farm stand event, and it was a huge success thanks to our amazing community and neighbors. We are so thankful to everyone that came out to tour the urban garden, visit the chickens and especially to everyone that signed up and took part in our second Kokedama Workshop!
For those unfamiliar, Kokedama is a traditional Japanese planting and arranging process that uses a ball of soil wrapped in moss and secured with string or fishing line to create a beautiful living art piece that's recently exploded in popularity.
Ms. K taught the class how to set up, arrange and care for these incredibly fun "plant sculptures" while also sharing some of the history behind the practice. Students were able to personalize their arrangements from a wide selection of herbs, flowers, ferns and other cuttings from around the urban garden. There were a lot of laughs, conversations and connections made over fresh brewed coffee, tea and a special treat right from our test kitchen.
It was a great time, and we were truly blessed with such an awesome group of participants. We can't wait to host the next event and hope you'll keep an eye on our calendar and social media for more info!
