The Grinch is back! Attending this super popular workshop is tradition for many of you! We're happy to be back "grinching" it up with you again this year. This is a family friendly workshop, great for all ages, but most-enjoyed by ages 7/8-adult. Using a lovely 6" round tin container and fresh floral foam, participants will twist up a branch of "leyland cypress" or "carolina sapphire" so it bends like the last tree in a Who-ville home once the Grinch got his greedy hands on all of the goodies. Fresh evergreen boughs (boxwood, pine and cedar) will be added at the base, along with light fresh flowers and a final touch of an ornament on the tip of the main branch. Lots of colour choices will be offered. Whimsical and fun for the holidays! Photo is of a Grinch project from a previous year; 2026 project will feature a red tin pot. -

Here’s a Twist! We’ve fully changed-up design of our Light Up The Night Workshop this year (see “Light Up The Night 2026” option) but we wondered if all you folks who have the WOODEN LANTERN FROM A PREVIOUS GRIFFIN’S WORKSHOP would like to bring it along for a re-do? In this workshop we’ll provide a fresh plastic saucer bottom (for either style as they switched a few years ago) and floral foam plus we’ll instruct you in designing a lovely mixed evergreen arrangement that will sit in the base of your lantern. We’ll provide lots of lovely accents to decorate your arrangement, just like the OG Lantern Workshop from years gone-by. If your battery operated candle is in good shape still, bring it along to use as one is not included in this reduced fee workshop. We WILL have extras to purchase at $15.00 each if you require a new one (payable at the end of the workshop, at our cash station). -

Big Bay Laurel, $40.00 What a find! Bay Laurel Plants (a herb that is used in cooking) are such a difficult-to-find plant for us to source, and we did it! AND the specimens we secured are BIG! Presenting in 7” pots, these herbs will be usable early in the season, and the aromatic leaves will keep producing all Summer. It is best to grow in a planter so you can bring this beauty indoors for Winter, keeping it for many years to come. Bay Laurel grows slowly, hence its elusiveness, and finding ones larger than wee ones in 4” pots is rare. Prebook Pick-Up: May 01, 02, 03, 04 only. -
