Floristry workshop: harvest arrangement with the Northern Flower Garden
Join florist Debbie for a seasonal floral workshop.
- Booking essential
Create a stunning, sustainable autumn arrangement using moss and chicken wire as your base, nestled in a rustic basket. You’ll add a beautiful mix of seasonal foliage, flowers, dried grasses, and apples – a nod to the harvest from Gibside’s orchards. A creative, hands-on activity that celebrates the colours and textures of autumn.
Whether you're curious to learn or simply craving a peaceful moment with nature, these sessions blend expert floristry techniques with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Small by design, Debbie's workshops welcome only 10 guests, making space for hands-on learning.
Your visit includes entry to Gibside, so take advantage of the scenic walk to the Stables and immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of the season, and stop of for a cosy break at Gibside Stables coffee shop and bookshop afterwards.
