For me, workshops are more than instructions - they’re about enjoying the mess, laughing over lopsided terrariums, and walking away with something you made yourself. I want folks to feel the joy of creating something green, and maybe make some new friends along the way. ### Workshop Options - Terrarium making class is our big hit. I’ll show you how to layer soil and stones, choose plants like fittonia and ferns, and craft your own ecosystem in a jar. There’s always someone who goes wild with the miniatures, and that’s half the fun. - Bonsai tree workshop gets into the nitty gritty of potting, pruning, and caring for these tiny trees. You’ll work on your own and take it home. - DIY miniature garden session is all about succulents, cacti, and open dish gardens. We talk design, but it’s chill - you decide if you want a desert or a jungle vibe. ### What to Expect - Zero gardening experience needed. I’ve had total newbies and plant nerds in the same group. - Everything’s provided - containers, soil, plants, tools, and decorations. - Usually 2 hours, on weekends. - You keep whatever you create. It’s yours. ### Team and Corporate Sessions We do corporate gardening activity at offices across Bengaluru. It’s a break from screens and meetings, and folks usually end up chatting over their pots. I tweak sessions for teams, whether it’s bonsai or just easy potting. ### Why It Matters Every session, I hope more green finds its way into homes and offices. That’s the dream. Come build something with us, and let’s make Bengaluru a bit leafier together. ## Highlights Browse through Green Lovers's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/greenn.lovers/gardening-workshops-classes/featured) - [Video: A look at our hands-on bonsai workshop conducted for a corporate team at Ecoworld, Bellandur.
