Floristry workshop & experience

Join Debbie from The Northern Flower Garden for a seasonal series of floristry workshops at Gibside.

  • Booking essential

Debbie's expertise and creativity make these workshops a real treat for anyone keen to learn something new. Each session is a standalone experience, perfect for a day out with friends or a chance to try your hand at a new craft.

Each seasonally-themed workshop will teach you something new about floral design. Learn to use bouquet spirals and arrange a Japanese Kokedama 'moss ball' with snowdrops, or create Easter wreathes and colourful spring-time compositions.

And expect more seasonal workshops to bloom as the year unfolds, such as meadow‑inspired arrangements and boho bouquets.

With only 10 places per workshop, you’ll get plenty of hands‑on guidance in a relaxed, friendly setting. Each workshop lasts up to 2 hours, with wreath workshops lasting up to 3 hours. Your ticket includes a drink, a baked treat and entry to Gibside, making it the perfect creative day out surrounded by nature.
