This event is current at capacity. Join our waitlist to be notified of openings that arise from cancelations! Imagine having a tiny rain forest – and the calming scent of moss after rain – on your desk to enjoy, year-round! Join us in learning how to design and build just that: your very own terrarium. Self-enclosed ecosystems encased in glass, terrariums are living pieces of art that require little to no maintenance, and hardly any water. In this beginner-friendly workshop, we’ll show you how to design, assemble, and care for a terrarium, and supply you with everything you’ll need. Done properly, your miniature world will remain green and fresh year-round, making for an excellent conversation piece, companion to your work desk, or enchanting gift.
This workshop is presented by gardenKitchener (the Kitchener Horticultural Society), in partnership with the Stanley Park Community Centre, and hosted by gardening expert, florist and beekeeper, Kiki Alwan.
