Our educational workshops are designed to help guests grow their confidence with plants through hands-on learning in an inspiring greenhouse setting.

Guests can learn about planting techniques, care routines, seasonal varieties, and tips for keeping their creations healthy long after the workshop ends.

Our DIY Kits offer a creative and educational way to learn about planting at home or on location. Designed for a wide range of ages and experience levels, each kit gives guests the chance to build their own seasonal design while learning more about plants, materials, and how to care for their finished creation.

With seasonal themes and approachable designs throughout the year, they’re a fun and flexible way to explore creativity, build confidence with plants, and take home something you made yourself.
