meet the lovely shanti ~ our farm fresh floral arranging teacher



It's an endless joy to know how to take the beauty of your surrounding environment and bring it into your home. Flowers are incredibly versatile ~ creating a cheerful home, decor for a dinner party or even just a beautiful everyday focal point. There is an art to floral design and we are thrilled to be offering a Farm Fresh Flower Arranging workshop on July 7, taught by local love and very talented Shanti Shultz. A floral designer and ceramic artist for over 10 years, Shanti's passion is creating beautiful flower arrangements that brighten life's treasured moments. From her experience working on an organic farm, Shanti is well versed in the growing season of our local blooms and is passionate about bringing this natural environment into our homes and celebrations. Students will take a peaceful walk through the farm, harvesting flowers with different colors, smells and textures and learn how to put it together. Flowers are works of art all on their own, but when arranged in a beautiful manner create a masterpiece.
