Broom Making Workshop with Sweeping Willows

Broom Making Workshop with Sweeping Willows

le 18 octobre 2025 de 12h00 à 16h00 EDT
7814 Lawrence St, Vernon, ON

We are excited to welcome Rachael Martin of Sweeping Willows for a broom making workshop at the museum. Participants will learn about harvesting broom corn and have the opportunity to get hands on and harvest a sample of broom corn from the museum's heritage garden (seasonally dependent). Afterwards, Rachael will guide participants through two projects that can be used around the house - a pot scrubber and a whisk. Making natural brooms offers an alternative to plastic, provides a creative outlet and presents an opportunity to try a new skill. This workshop is capped at 8 participants.

Please wear comfortable clothes and clean footwear.

Where:
 The Osgoode Township Museum, 7814 Lawrence Street. 
When: October 18, 12pm to finish (4pm). Please bring a snack and water, we will take breaks!
Cost: $80 per person, inclusive of materials fee. 

Registration Coming Soon.
