BLOOMIN' BUDDIES CLASSES
In cooperation with Touch of Love florists in Canon City, these classes offer the opportunity for kids to learn how a plant grows - and - to design their very own floral arrangement!!  There are two classes to join in on, one in June and one in July, so don't miss the fun and excitement of getting to make your very own bouquet that you get to take home!! 

Click here for more info on Bloomin' Buddies!

We hope to see you there!!
