HARRINGTON PARK—Spring is in the air, and the Garden Club of Harrington Park (GCHP) is welcoming flower lovers of all experience levels to celebrate the season with a hands-on floral design workshop, Florals for Spring — Supermarket Style, led by club president Gerri Gibney.
The event takes place Thursday, April 3 at 7:30 p.m. in the upstairs meeting room of the Harrington Park Library, 10 Herring Street.
This make-it-and-take-it workshop is open to all, from all towns. Participants are asked to bring a selection of flowers—many supermarkets offer three bundles for about $15. The club will provide containers and oasis foam. Be sure to bring your pruners!
