June Speakers:  Audrey Holt and Jeffree Pearson, The Art of Flower Arranging

Audrey Holt is attracted to art in many forms; whether it is finding beauty in creating a painting, capturing the best view in a photo, planning a garden or designing a flower arrangement.  

Audrey is a Life Member of the Master Gardeners. Over the years she has created floral arrangements for personal enjoyment and for various gatherings; earned Blue Ribbons and Best of Show for fair entries; conducted a SIG for Master Gardeners on Flower Arranging; presented a power point on Flower Arranging for state meeting of 4H leaders. At Judging Schools Audrey gave demonstrations on judging flower arrangements, and has been Horticulture Judge at county and district fairs which included judging flower arrangements.

Jeffree Pearson is a new Master Gardener from the fall 2017 class. He enjoys making flower arrangements and agreed to assist with the program on the Art of Flower Arranging.  Jeffree says that most of what he knows, he picked up on his own before he worked for about five years for a florist.

 With practice and experimentation there is much to learn, enjoy and share on creating attractive floral arrangements.
