Join us as we celebrate the dandelion – a vibrant flower packed with purpose! Sip on soothing dandelion tea, enjoy a fresh dandelion salad, create a nourishing salve from this powerful plant, and craft a pollinator-friendly sign to support lawn biodiversity. Come learn, create, and connect with the land in this hands-on experience.
