Made Handmade Paper with Flowers
Celebrate ripe blueberries and summer flowers with Mindy as she makes paper from recycled materials and flower petals.
Tuesday, July 18th at 10am. Ages 3+
Cider Hill Farm, 45 Fern Ave, Amesbury, MA 01913
$5 per child / $10 family (limited family tickets available)
Event will be at the tented area in the Upper Courtyard at the front of the Farm store, rain or shine.
Visit Cider Hill Farm and create recycled paper! The paper is made by blending old newsprint and junk mail to create new paper pulp. Participants add dried flowers to the pulp and press them into paper shapes. The paper can be used for notes or gift tags, even a lovely seasonal decoration.
Participants are encourage to take a walk out to Cider Hill Farm's U-Pick flower field and bring back a bloom to add to your sheet. (Not required.)
Bring your own paper to add to the mix! Please no stickers, staples, cardboard, or glossy/coated paper.
Join her as she recycles old used paper into fun new shapes.
We'll mix in flower petals from the Farm for a summer touch.
