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 the making of broom corn kitchen tools. 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 17, 12pm to finish (4pm). Please bring a snack and water, we will take breaks!
Cost: $80 per person, inclusive of materials fee. 

Registration Closes October 15th, 2026.
