This event has already finished but is here for for your information

Calling all gardeners! Create a beautiful willow tower trellis for function and variety in your garden alongside Artist-in-Residence Mary Kopecky. This all-wild willow tower is made with a few basic weaving techniques and a bit of muscle. The finished tower will be approximately 7 feet tall, but it can be made smaller to fit your garden space. Participants need to have good hand and arm strength, endurance, and the ability to sit or kneel on the floor for long periods of time. Ideal for trellising cucumbers, pole beans, clematis and other vining plants. Please bring your own lunch, loppers, sharp hand pruners, and a hammer. This class will be held at the ICNC Barn (6665 Otis Rd SE).  Register by February 1st.
