ABOUT THIS 2-DAY WORKSHOP:  Celebrate the joy of spring by learning how to draw flowers with Draw Botanical instructor, Pam Thompson.

Single Day tickets are also available $175.

ABOUT FERNBROOK FARMS: Third generation owners Susie and Q Kuser came to the farm in 1974 and began their dream of transforming the farm into a place that is shared with many and used to educate both young and old about food, the beauty of nature, and sustainable farming practices. In 1996, 230 acres of the farm was permanently preserved under the New Jersey Farmland Preservation Act so no future development can take place on the farm.

ABOUT THE ARTIST: Pam Thompson is a Draw Botanical instructor, botanical artist, and scientist in Pennsylvania where she strives to capture the unique, intrinsic artistry of the plants that inspire her. After earning her PhD in chemistry, she worked in the biotechnology field, and raised a family. She discovered Botanical Art in 2017 when she attended a workshop with Wendy Hollender, founder of Draw Botanical.  She’s been head over heels since, loves teaching for Draw Botanical, and strives to create an inviting and un-intimidating atmosphere for students of all levels to learn new skills and get inspired by nature.
