Blooms & Bees: A Sweet Summer Night Out
Service Description
We’ll begin with a full-sensory honey tasting experience at The Dry Creek Beekeeping Honey Bar, where you’ll explore the color, aroma, texture, and flavor of rare and exotic honeys from around the world. From floral and fruity to rich and earthy, you’ll learn to taste honey like a sommelier while enjoying the sweet buzz of community and conversation. Next, step into a hands-on floral design workshop led by The Novel Bloom. Using freshly harvested summer blooms from their garden, you’ll create a stunning arrangement to take home—a beautiful reminder of your evening spent sipping, smelling, tasting, and creating. No experience needed—just bring your curiosity and a friend (or two). We’ll provide everything else!
