It's not all about the roses

In the months before the Rose Society Annual Show, one of the members gave lessons to others in floral art. They were charged a small amount for each of the six weekly lessons. At the end of the period, the $600 raised in fees was donated to the Breast Cancer Council.
Those who had taken the lessons were encouraged to exhibit their talents at the show. The lessons were obviously taken to heart and there was a wonderful display today. The photograph shows two of the more conventional arrangements. Any flowers, foliage and accessories could be used in these classes. I’ll share more later.

This is a good way to educate someone in a skill as well as raise money for a good cause.
Plus delight for people who come to watch this.
I suppose a lot of activities keep on happening at your place and quite constructive as well !
