Camp Bloom in the Summer...a week-long experience!
Check out the fun from our first two summertime Camp Blooms in 2019 and 2020 through the slideshow below...Year One was simply magical! Year Two was stunning. Camp Bloom...it’s a new Hanover Arts and Activities Center tradition!
Join Honeygirl Flowers at the Hanover Arts and Activities Center for a week of flower fun! This year camp will run from July 12th through July 16th from 9 a.m.-noon. Campers (rising third through eighth-graders) will learn the basics of creating beautiful flower arrangements in vases, of course, but flowers can be used for so much more! In past camps we have created:
We have left the Center behind for several walking field trips to local gardens and shops and heard from a variety of local experts and business owners about how they work with flowers and sell their own blooms. And, they have come to us! We have created our own container gardens full of colorful annuals courtesy of Colesville Nursery, and we have created lush bouquets with just-picked flowers from The Freckled Flower Farm.
I taught full-time in the public school system for 35 years, including the last 20 as a fifth-grade teacher in Ashland. I still teach science resource classes at Gandy Elementary on a part-time basis. My two amazing sisters, who are also veteran teachers, assist me daily at Camp Bloom.
Cost of the week-long camp is $175 (this is a slight increase in cost as the price of fresh flowers has risen steeply due to Covid). Multiple Covid protocols will be in place for the safety of all.
- fresh flower crowns, hand-tied bouquets, and fresh flower jewelry…
- felt flowers for floral barrettes and headbands, painted flower designs, embossed flower images, and hand-crafted paper roses...
- decorated cookies and cupcakes with flower designs and our own homemade floral ice-cream...
- a fabulous "floral doorway" fit for a wedding...
- stamped clay bowls and jewelry...
- table arrangements for local restaurants...
- giant paper peonies to display inside Ashland Meat Company, and much much more!
