'Tis the season! What better way to put yourself in the fall mood than making a decorative wreath? Join our Forge Nature Series and make a Buckthorn Wreath to impress your family and friends during this holiday season.

Did you know that buckthorn is one of the MOST invasive shrubs at The Forge: Lemont Quarries? Let's turn these destructive plants into festive art!

Decorate a pre-shaped rustic wreath or swag made from Buckthorn or Honeysuckle(also invasive) just in time for the holidays.

We’ll provide:

• buckthorn wreaths and swags + various dried plants and other natural decor items

• ribbon

• scissors, hot glue guns

Hot Chocolate and cider available for additional purchase

Crafters of all ages and groups are welcome! Meet us at the kiosk in Parking Lot #2. We’ll be crafting outside -we'll have the fire pit going, but dress warmly!
