Our Community Gardener Paul shows how it’s done
Learn how to create beautiful Christmas wreaths at Beacon Park this December.
Beacon Park is hosting two days of Christmas wreath workshops on Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 December, running each day from 10am to 12noon and 2pm to 4pm.
Taking place in the park’s Discovery Hub, participants will use a variety of locally sourced greenery to make a wreath, including adding festive embellishments, including pine cones, cinnamon sticks and slices of dried orange for that extra Christmassy feel.
Councillor Iain Eadie, Cabinet Member for Leisure at Lichfield District Council, said: “A handmade wreath is a special addition to any home at Christmas, so book your place on one of the four sessions to learn a great skill.”
Mince pies and hot drinks will be served at the workshops, making this a truly festive event.
Places cost £15 each and need to be booked in advance by calling Beacon Park on 01543 308869 or by emailing parks@lichfielddc.gov.uk.
