Classes & Education
Sweet Brier Florals is just getting started, and we’re looking forward to growing a little flower-loving community along the way. In the near future, we hope to offer seasonal workshops. From bouquet making and holiday wreaths to deep dives into dahlias, we imagine creating a space where neighbors and new friends can come together, learn something fun, and leave with flowers in hand.Ready to take your gardening skills to the next level?

Dividing Dahlias WorkshopCome join us on Sunday, November 15 from 2-4pm in Brier for an afternoon of digging, dividing and learning all about dahlia storage! Dahlias are undoubtedly one of the most showy fall blooms, with endless colors and forms to choose from. They are truly the gift that keeps on giving. Plant one, and you’ll be digging up 5 to 15 tubers the next season! Maybe you’ve grown dahlias for a few years in your garden and would like to begin sharing them with friends? Or maybe you want to grow them but are intimidated by winter storage. Let’s break it all down and demystify dahlias together!
Our Workshop Goals-
First and foremost, our classes should be fun! I envision neighbors with similar interest meeting up and getting to know each other. Friends joining as a group and making it a “girl’s night.” I want to create a little flower-loving community here in Brier.

You don’t have time to read all the books, watch all the videos and curate the perfect learning environment. That’s where I come in! I’ll focus in on the basics, going deeper when it’s interesting and important. My goal is for you to leave with a greater understanding and confidence than you came in with.

I’m not here to teach you about tissue culture dahlia propogation…if you’re into that sort of thing, awesome! I’m here for that. But in our workshops we will focus on practical skills, building knowledge you will use every season as a gardener. Sometimes we will work together on crafts that will make for a lovely gift or life skill.

Most of the cost involved in attending a workshop will be to cover materials needed, and my time to gather and create the curriculum. I want our classes to be affordable and accessible for all. If you really want to join, but the cost is a hindrance for you, please reach out and we will make it work.
