Jean has been making wreaths for over 30 years, and teaching wreath making workshops for 10 years. She worked for 27 years at Great Mountain Forest as Communications, Development and Program Coordinator. Planning and facilitating programs became her passion, and Jean was able to teach some of her own programs for children and adults at the forest. After the onset of COVID, Jean left her job to take care of her granddaughter. Throughout the seasons, Jean gardens, makes wreaths and makes maple syrup along with her husband, forester Jody Bronson. Jean still teaches occasional programs for children and adults. She is looking forward to meeting all who would like to make wreaths!
