Natural garland creation workshop with forest materials, in Todi｜Italy

From what you find in nature, you can make beautiful things, giving vent to creativity and craftsmanship. Learn how to create a trendy decoration and then take home the fruit of your labor! From Christmas garlands made with pine cones, holly, and spruce branches, to spring garlands with fresh flowers, or even autumn garlands with colorful leaves, berries, and intertwined branches. These natural materials are surprisingly versatile, letting you make decorative garlands for any season or occasion. And the best part is, you don't need to buy anything: nature offers everything we need for a truly sustainable experience!
Imagine turning simple things you find in the woods into a unique handmade decoration, a work of art that captures the scent of the earth and the magic of a special moment. It's an experience that combines the pleasure of being outdoors with the satisfaction of creating something beautiful with your own hands.
The journey kicks off with a quick 15-minute briefing where you'll uncover the coolest features of your location—a farm with endangered animals and orchards boasting ancient varieties that have since vanished.
Then, you'll set off on a guided walk in the woods around the farm, looking for the right materials while listening to stories about Umbrian farming traditions and other interesting facts about the wild vegetation of that particular season. It's a real "natural treasure hunt," where you'll look for the most suitable materials for your creations.
It's a super easy walk, perfect even for those who aren't used to rough trails – everything will be done super safely.
After about 45 minutes of searching, you'll head back to the farm, where you can relax with a herbal tea or a glass of wine (included in the price of the experience).
Next up is the creative workshop, where Nancy will guide you step-by-step in crafting your own garland. She'll give you all the extra support and materials you need to make your work perfect. At the end of the workshop, you'll take home your own personalized garland, a tangible memento of an unforgettable experience.
And to top it all off, you can round off your day with a zero-kilometer aperitif, savoring our local products, or cooling off with a dip in the pool (weather permitting).
