Botanical Press Workshop

McFarland Park, Story County

Saturday, March 1, 2025

Artists, herbalists, and plant lovers of all ages, we invite you to explore a timeless natural craft that will help you deepen your connection to nature while infusing your home with beautiful, dried plants. In this workshop you will learn how to press flowers, leaves, and other plant parts to preserve their color for years to come. Participants will have a variety of dried flowers and foliage to pick from, then lay them down creatively in a picture frame, or a pressed flower journal to take home. All of the materials you’ll need to get started with botanical pressing, including your own plant press, will be provided.

All materials are provided, but participants are welcome to bring in their own flowers/ plants or frames/journals as well.

Unless otherwise stated, refunds can be issued less a $5.00 processing fee per event for cancellations prior to the registration deadline. No refunds will be made after the registration deadline.
