Workshops
Mohr Living is more than flowers. It’s a lifestyle,
and sharing that life is what I like best. Come snuggle a chicken, walk the gardens, and eat a piece of cake at one of my home workshops. Or perhaps you want to host your own workshop? Send me an email melissatipson@gmail.com and we can discuss Mohr Living coming to you. Unfortunately the chickens don’t travel, ha!
I have attended many garden workshops over the years and while some have been great I think many are missing the teaching component. As a University trained music teacher with 20 years experience teaching children to adults, I guarantee my workshops will be educational. Come prepared with paper and pen but I will also provide a printout with each session.
Growing Ranunculus & Anemone 101
Sign up for this workshop if you’re interested in learning how to grow your own Ranunculus & Anemone. I’ll go over how to pre-spout corms, potting them up, best growing practices, and winter storage.

Starting a Cut Flower Garden
Ever dreamed of growing your own cut flowers? In this workshop you’ll learn about different types of gardens (raised beds, monoculture, mixed, etc.), soil health, easy to start flowers, basic care and more. It will be hands on and you’ll go home with 5 seedlings (1 cosmo, 1 zinnia, 1 coco marigold, 1 purple basil, 1 mahogany splendor) and a dahlia tuber to help get your garden started. Plus cake and a garden tour of course.
