About this event

2 hours

Welcome the approaching summer with a beautiful crown. We'll make fantastic head pieces using late spring plants and colourful ribbons which have been botanically dyed at SILT. Taste a range of wild teas as we come together to celebrate the beginning of summer around the midway point between the spring equinox and summer solstice. This in person event will be held at SILT, Unit 6 St Georges Works, Silver Street, Trowbridge. Come and create a beautiful crown using natural materials gathered from the local landscape.
