The Festive Table 

Learn simple, creative ways to combine fruits, vegetables and nuts with locally-harvested greens, berries and candles to decorate your home and table for Thanksgiving and the Winter Holidays. 

Betsy will demonstrate ideas and techniques for naturalistic seasonal centerpieces, guest favors and door decorations. Each attendee will decorate a gourd and make a boxwood apple candle to take home and use on holiday tables. Informational handouts will be available.
