Wreath Making at Hanley Farm
Add a wonderful tradition to your Holiday activities by making your own wreath: Saturday November 25 at Hanley Farm (1053 Hanley Road between Central Point and Medford), from 11am to 3pm, free admission.
Wreath materials are $15 for non-members or $10 for SOHS members.
Santa will be there with a fun activity for the children, there will be warm drinks and snacks for purchase, and there will be unique items for sale at the Hanley Mercantile.
Whether the wreath is a symbol of welcoming or the circle represents eternity, it is a long tradition, in the darkest time of the year, to make a circular wreath from evergreens. At Hanley Farm, wreaths are made from all natural materials with grapevine bases from the farm’s grapes and greens clipped from the trees and bushes that grace the historic landscape.
Wreath making kits include the grapevine base, choice of greens and berries, wire and clippers and someone to give advice.
Though the Hanley House will not be available for tours it will be decorated and open for Holidays at Hanley December 26.
Start the Holiday Season off with a fresh green wreath you have made yourself!

A Call to Community – Foster Care & Adoption is an information meeting on the 2nd Monday of each month at Rise Coffeehouse at 1123 E. Jackson St., Medford, OR 97504. Our Recruitment Coordinator, as well as a panel of foster & adoptive parents, look forward to welcoming you!
A Call to Community is geared towards those wondering what the whole foster care or adoption journey is about, what it means to partner with DHS Child Welfare, and for those who want to hear the perspective of people with boots on the ground! This is an honest conversation about both the highlights and the challenges of foster care and adoption through the Child Welfare system. It is a perfect opportunity to listen and to ask those burning questions.
Please share and grab a friend! We believe it will be well worth your time. As folks in the community discern partnering with the foster care system, we value them stepping in with eyes wide open to all this worthy, beautiful, exciting journey entails. Join us!
