Many of the projects you will find on my blog come from the Doan farm or are at least inspired out there. The Doans run a specialty cut-flower farm called "Aunt Willie's Wildflowers." Linda spends most of the spring and summer growing cut flowers for farmer's markets but she also teaches workshops on arranging flowers. From teapots to stumps, you name it and she can arrange in it. Check out Linda's website here.
Linda used this centerpiece for one of the workshops last spring and I, of course, fell in love with the idea. All she did was take an old chicken feeder, fill it with soil, then plant a variety of lettuces. The centerpiece at the workshop lunch was this feeder and the ladies were able to pick pieces of lettuce to add to their salads.
For any of you looking to bring a bit of country to your next get together, I highly recommend giving this a try.
