A Winter Flower Arranging Workshop in Amherst, Massachusetts

Got the winter blues? Join us for a cozy February morning filled with warm tea, delicious pastries, and hands-on flower arranging using fresh, locally grown winter tulips.

At Bramble + Blooms, we’re a small-scale flower farm rooted in Granby, Massachusetts. While most of our flowers grow outdoors during the warmer months, winter is when we carefully force tulips, a special process that allows us to extend the growing season and bring locally grown flowers to life when they’re least expected.

Hosted at The Inn on Boltwood, this beginner-friendly floral workshop is the perfect excuse to slow down, gather indoors, and soak up a little midwinter joy. You’ll spend the morning surrounded by fresh, local tulips and fellow flower lovers, creating something beautiful during a time of year that often feels a bit gray.

We can’t wait to share these winter tulips—grown right here in Western Massachusetts—and a relaxed, welcoming morning with you.

What to Expect
We’ll begin with a short, approachable demonstration where I’ll walk you through the basics of creating a balanced, seasonal flower arrangement using winter-grown tulips. From there, you’ll head to our flower bar to select your own blooms based on a curated color palette and bouquet recipe.

Tulips will take center stage, supported by thoughtfully chosen secondary flowers, foliage, and textural accents, all provided by Bramble + Blooms.

No prior floral experience is needed. This workshop is designed to be relaxed, inspiring, and accessible for all skill levels.
