A Unique Wreath for Every Participant

Since the Arboretum contains dozens of different types of trees and many shades of berries, it’s not surprising that each of the twenty participants at the Wreath Making Workshop on December 8 created a distinct work of art for the holiday season.

Some wreaths were many tones of green, while others included pine cones and berries for ornamentation. Others were lush creations befitting a royal palace.

Participants enjoyed the process of making their wreath as much as they marveled over their finished creations.

Thanks to the Master Gardener volunteers who organized the workshop, wrapped the Styrofoam forms, gathered greenery and berries from the gardens, provided assistance at the workshop, and took photos of the completed wreaths for everyone to admire on the website. Special thanks to Teresa Surratt, the Pitt County Extension Master Gardener Volunteer who led the workshop.
