Saturdays May-June (excluding May 25th) from 8am- 12pm we will be running a Gardeners Market in the Pine Forest Charter School west parking lot. Local vendors will be selling garden starts, perennial plants, trees, seeds, greenhouse kits and more! Free workshops will be held at each market from 10am-11am on a variety of gardening/sustainability related topics. Visit flagstafflily.com under the 'Gardeners Market' tab for details and our workshop schedule.
In this workshop at Rio Verde Ranch, you will learn how to find the right soil and plants, how to easily process them into paints and/or ink, safety tips, and more. Arizona’s Central Highlands are famous for their red soils, and we’ll work from pigments we gather together. We’ll explore plants along the Verde River, and learn how to create botanical inks. For the last hour of workshop, we’ll create sketches of the landscape, plants, and wildlife of the Upper Verde using our new paint and ink—truly place-based art. Participants will take home sample paints and inks. Bring your own lunch and sketchbook, and don’t forget your binoculars.
Local vendors will be selling locally grown garden starts, perennial plants, trees, seeds and gardening materials. Free workshops will be held at each market from 10am-11am. For more information and the workshop schedule visit flagstafflily.com
