Fun Terrarium classes in New York City

Terrarium classes for beginners

If you're thinking there’s no way you can manage plants, you’d be amazed at how easy it is to maintain your DIY terrarium. You’ll start by learning exactly what a terrarium is and why it's a cinch to care for your plants inside a glass vessel. Learning how to make a terrarium is fun, especially with an enthusiastic plant expert. Just show up ready to get a little messy and take a deep dive into succulents, air plants, mosses, and more. Your teacher will have terrarium kits ready for you to start on your project. You’ll learn how to layer the soil and rocks for drainage, how to properly mist your plants, and how much light they need to stay strong and healthy.

Whether you want a succulent terrarium or one with air plants, you’ll learn the difference between those plants and styles of containers. Open ones are easy to make and water, but you might want to try a closed terrarium for an added challenge.

What to expect at NYC terrarium classes

Our hands-on workshops are perfect for those who want to try unique experiences. Every class is geared toward beginners so everyone can feel at ease. Your teacher is passionate about sharing knowledge and making sure everyone has a great time. Once you sink your hands in the dirt and place your plants in their vessels, you’ll be hooked! This is a chill way to spend an hour or two playing around and experimenting. There’s no right or wrong, just your exploration of terrarium making.

The best part is that you’ll take home your creation and be able to watch it grow. Find the perfect shelf or window that lets in filtered light, give it a spritz once in a while, and enjoy your indoor garden year-round! Or if you’re feeling generous you can gift your DIY terrarium to someone special as a birthday gift or as the best Christmas present.

Terrarium making is great for your wellbeing

Everyone can appreciate a hobby that lets you decompress from everyday life. Gardening is a great way to do that, but not everyone has the space in the city. Terrarium classes in NYC let you have time in nature without needing a rooftop garden or committing to plants that need more care and attention. The best part is that you can add to your plant collection without needing a lot of extra space.

If you’re looking for the perfect present for the nature-lover in your life, a terrarium workshop is a gift experience they will appreciate! Teams looking for bonding activities can take a class together and relax while getting hands-on. You can socialize while working on something fun and fulfilling.
