Apples, one of our most ancient and useful fruits, have played an important role in fall and winter celebrations for many centuries. Learn apple history and traditions while you make an apple candle to decorate your seasonal table, a spicy apple pomander for gift giving, fragrant old-fashioned mast balls, and ornaments with apple-cinnamon dough. You’ll also create a winter apple potpourri to take home. Please bring floral scissors and an apron to this class, which will take place at Tower Hill Botanic Garden, 11 French Drive, Boylston, Massachusetts on Saturday, October 22 from 10 – 1. Betsy Williams of The Proper Season will instruct. This is a messy class, she says, so be sure to wear old clothes. THBG members $60, non-members $65. Register at www.towerhillbg.org, or call 508-869-6111.
