Make an Herbarium: Plants Can Live Forever

Meet 12 farm­ers who have cap­tured the ephemer­al nature, from seed to flower (or veg­etable), of com­mon, every­day plants. Expe­ri­ence 12 col­lages of pre­served spec­i­mens, from roots to shoots, and then learn to make your own flower press to take home. You can cre­ate a library of plants and flow­ers (herbar­i­um) that will delight you forever.
