October and November Workshops for Heralding the Holidays
Both of these meetings are workshops for Heralding the Holidays. This annual event is always the first weekend of December. This years dates and times are: Friday, December 4 from 5-9 pm, Saturday, December 5 from 10 am-5pm, and Sunday, December 6 from Noon to 5pm. Groups meeting at the Toledo Botanical Garden participate in this event. Some of these are the Toledo Artists Club, The Potters, the Glass Blowers, and the Rock Hounds.
During our workshops we decorate, label, and price our wares. Among our herbal items for sale are jams, jellies, mustards and vinegars, herbs, herbal blends and teas, pot pourri, wreaths, and craft items. We also have a silent auction and a bake sale. The money we earn is used in supporting the summer intern program at TBG, to purchase plants for the herb garden, and to help in other ways.
If you are looking for gifts that are a bit unusual for your self and for others, come and join us. You won’t be disappoionted. You will find us in the Conference Center at the Toledo Botanical Garden.

My husband, Harold Hoffman, volunteers with your group at TBG on Wed. mornings and was recently at the mustard workshop. Prior to the mustard workshop, he was reading a newsletter that mentioned the crafts, silent auction, and bake sale. (I read over his shoulder.) The newsletter has been trashed, but I’d like to offer 2 felted purses for the silent auction and candy for the bake sale. Please let me know who to contact to pass along these items.
Regards,
Eileen Hoffman
