Floral Mocktails & Flower Pressing
This event was really fun and I got to share my two hobbies: flower pressing and creating beverages from plants. I made each participant’s flower press, which was a great learning process for me. Intervale Florals in Margaree, Cape Breton Island, supplied a beautiful bouquet. The rest of the plants we pressed were either wild on the property, or from the Edible Garden we planted at an event the year prior.
