Natural Wreaths: From Minnesota’s Forests

Course Overview

Go "all-natural" this holiday season and explore an alternative wreath made entirely from Minnesota's northern forests. Two silviculture specialists lead this enjoyable project as we explore the connection between craft and forest-based products - the all-natural wreath. This class will show you how to make a holiday wreath using the sprightly greened princess pine, a hoop made from hand-pounded black ash, and inner bark of basswood as a material to tie everything together. All of the materials are from Minnesota's northern forests. Informal discussions on how to gather and process the materials used to make this all-natural wreath, as well as plant growth and forest management as it relates to the project, will make this a conscientious holiday project.
