Make Your Own Terrarium Workshop

Create your own lush terrarium in this hands-on Seattle workshop—just bring a lidded glass vessel!



1 hour Location University District Class size 1 to 12 (public classes), 10 to 15   $50 - $60 ($50 for Bring your own glass vessel; $60 for Glass vessel included)

Connect with nature and design a self-sustaining ecosystem you can proudly display. Come join our fun, hands-on terrarium building class in Seattle and learn how to create your own terrarium using your own glass vessel.
Whether you’re brand new to plants or already have a green thumb, this warm and welcoming workshop is for everyone—all ages, all experience levels. In this terrarium making class, you'll make your own terrarium using layers of soil, plants, and even tiny springtails to help keep your miniature ecosystem happy and thriving.
Just bring a glass container with a lid (under 8 inches wide and not too narrow), and we’ll provide everything else: tools, substrate, and a sweet selection of greenery. Don’t have a glass? No worries—you can buy one from our collection starting at just $10. Come build a terrarium, tap into your creativity, and leave with a little world of your own in a jar.
Please note: We can accommodate larger groups of 15-70 people at a custom price that will be determined after discussion. Please send a message if you are interested in this service.

  • 4/5 from Shashi Kanoria, attended Oct 2025: Class was good loved the teacher My tip..we can give some more information on which plants to use, where to keep the terrarium (needs some sunlight) I feel some more guidance in planting could have been helpful for those who have never done any plants. Also if we could get a mail or a writeup on the steps and the materials used. Thankyou
