Program Description

Event Details

If flowers could speak, what would they say? Sarah Taylor from the Colonel Palmer House in Crystal Lake joins us to kick off our Prairie Roots program series to discuss the origins of plant taxonomy, symbolic and historic meanings of flowers, flower arrangements through history, symbolic gardens, and more.
 

Attendees will have the opportunity to create a “Tussie Mussie” craft (a historic bouquet with a secret special message using fresh flowers).
