Studies have shown that adding greenery and nature in the workplace actually helps reduce stress levels, so no wonder people love having more plants!

We offer both in-person and virtual workshops in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and beyond, where passionate teachers guide employees through the process of building a beautiful terrarium from scratch.
