Gran will demonstrate using locally foraged and dried materials, as well as evergreen branches, to create a holiday wreath.

Gran is the farmer-florist owner of Fabled Flora on Orcas Island. Fabled Flora is committed to stewarding the land through no-till and regenerative farming practices. Robin Wall Kimmerer’s statement, “To love a place is not enough. We must find ways to heal it,” guides her work. Gran’s arrangements grace island weddings and are available at Lum’s Farm Stand from July through October.
