The Next Craft Cafe - THIS Sunday, June 24th, 7 - 9 PM


Hi Everyone!! It is time for the next Craft Cafe...

Calling all green thumbs…the next Craft Cafe project is a small indoor/outdoor herb garden. Herbs are easy and fun to grow, good for your body (aid in digestion) and give all of your meals that extra pizzazz. This is an awesome project for those of us in the Rockies that find a hard time growing herbs outside with our limited growing season. Herb gardens are perfect for small spaces too, and are a lot of fun to create, so bring your kids. Any old pots, vintage milk cans, tin cans or interesting glassware would be great options to recycle into cute herb garden containers.

This workshop is on
Sunday,  June 24th, 7 - 9 PM, Wild Flour Cafe in Banff (211 Bear Street in the Bison Courtyard)

Cost: For $30 you can pick a clay pot, stones, organic soil & fertilizer, 3 organic herb choices (options will include mint, thyme, parsley, sage, basil, oregano, rosemary) and a few items to make unique herb markers and decorate your pot.

Please sign up and PAY at the Wild Flour prior to the class. Advanced registration only. Please contact Tiffany if you would rather register using Paypal or Interact E-transfer.

We look forward to seeing you on Sunday!
