The Oregon State University Extension Service and the United Community Action Network are partnering to provide a class on creating unique, wearable floral arrangements while fighting hunger.

The Flowers for Cause Workshop will take place at the OSU Extension Office on Saturday, December 6th, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

Floral designer and Master Gardner Peg Sullivan will teach attendees how to craft stunning wearable floral art, from elegant corsages and charming boutonnieres to whimsical headbands that are perfect for gifts, celebrations or just adding flair to the day.

The class is a chance to give back. Admission is two canned or non-perishable food items, which will be donated to UCAN to support local families in need.

Registration is required by December 1st. To sign up for the Flowers for a Cause workshop, visit: beav.es/4Yt or call the OSU Extension office at 672-4461.
