Our annual Greens Gathering goes online as fellow Multnomah Chapter, OSU Master Gardener, Evie Hausman inspires us during the dark winter months to bring greens inside to brighten our days. Evie will discuss using conifer and broadleaf evergreens, how to choose, cut and condition the greens. She will also discuss using flowers, berries, etc. She will make a centerpiece and show how the same design can be changed and used for other decorations.  She will also demonstrate how to use wire to make clusters of evergreens to create swags and wreaths.
