Wreath-Making Workshop 2014

Summary
The annual wreathmaking workshop is a popular event that Merck Forest holds in the Visitor Center in early December. The workshop is family-friendly, and children are welcome to attend with an adult. Merck Forest supplies guests with a wreath-making frame, tools, the boughs to place in the frame, and limited ribbons to adorn the wreaths. Each guest is able to make one wreath. If they would like to bring their own ornaments to add on, we invite them to do so! Coffee and tea are available in the Visitor Center.
