In this hands-on workshop, participants will build their own 32 oz closed terrarium using live plants and live moss. We guide you step by step through the process, explaining how a terrarium works and why each layer matters. Each terrarium is built with proper drainage, mesh, carbon, and a custom soil mix before being planted and finished with moss and decorative elements. No two terrariums are the same, each one is uniquely created by the person building it. This workshop is beginner friendly and designed to be both educational and relaxing. The finished terrarium is low maintenance and makes a great take-home piece for your home or workspace. All materials are included, and no prior experience is needed.
