About this Event
Join garden educators Carey Craddock and Jordan Kushins for a festive morning making thoughtful gifts inspired by nature. Together we’ll tour GFE to collect botanical treasures, then learn how to use our harvest to create a set of leaf-printed cards, a portable flower press, and a seasonal mini bouquet. You’ll leave this hands-on session with three gifts to give or keep, and full of fresh ideas and holiday spirit!
Instructors:
Jordan Kushins (she / her) writes about creative places, people, and things; draws everything from seagulls to salvias; makes ceramic jewelry and other crafts; and gardens weekly with Carey Craddock, and kids at the Up On Top! program at the Tenderloin Rec Center. She’s a proud Garden for the Environment Get Up! grad, and has since designed sweatshirts, hats, pins, and signs for GFE.
