CLASS DESCRIPTION:

Learn the art of floral arranging and composition with Virginia flowers and botanicals. Leave with a beautiful garden-inspired centerpiece!

In this 1.5-hour floral workshop, you will explore VA grown flowers and their characteristics, choose, cut, and arrange blooms and stems, and create a unique centerpiece-style arrangement (about 5 stems of larger focal flowers, complemented with 8-10 of spray and foliage).


What to Bring:

Please bring your own vessel (min 7” diameter opening) to create your botanical masterpiece!

About the Instructor:

June Mena is a floral designer who founded Ceres Botanical, a Richmond-based design studio focused on highlighting local flowers in the creation of custom arrangements. She began her floral career as a grower, working on Prospect Hill Flower Farm, near Richmond, VA. After designing bouquets for the farmer’s market, she began to turn to cut flowers and found she was drawn to creating unique table centerpieces. She currently designs for local restaurants, weddings, and other events, utilizing sustainable design principles and a naturalistic, lush style.
