THIS November, Dobbies’ Southport store will host free festive-inspired events, giving people of all ages the chance to create garden-inspired gift ideas and Christmas decorations through fun, hands-on activities.

The month kicks off with Dobbies’ popular Grow How workshop series, which begins on:- Saturday, 2 November 2024, and continues every Wednesday throughout the month at 10:30am and 3:30pm.

The workshops will focus on gardening gift ideas, just in time for the festive season. Attendees will learn how to forage from their gardens or outdoor spaces to create thoughtful, sustainable gifts for loved ones. The sessions will include demonstrations from Dobbies’ colleagues on how to create DIY natural decorations, such as wreaths and centrepieces using foraged materials, as well as instructions on crafting homemade Christmas gifts, like potpourri.

For younger attendees between the ages of 3-10, the Little Seedlings Club workshop will take place on:- Sunday, 3 November 2024 at different times throughout the morning.

This session will centre on the 4 seasons and the garden-inspired gifts that can be created throughout the year. Children will learn the science behind the change in seasons, share stories about Christmas and exchanging gifts, and enjoy fun games and activities. As part of the workshop, they will also decorate a pot and plant a festive bulb to gift to someone special, encouraging them to share the joy of giving.

Ayesha Nickson, Dobbies’ Events Programme Manager said:- “Our free November workshops in our Southport store provides a fantastic opportunity to get creative and make something personal for your loved ones this Christmas, using materials from your own garden. The Little Seedlings Club is especially magical for children, as they get to learn about nature and make gifts that are truly meaningful. It’s a great way for families to spend time together and kick off the holiday season.”

Both events are free to attend, but spaces are limited. To find out more and to book, visit:- dobbies.com/events.
