🌱 What to Expect:
In this 2-hour workshop, you’ll get messy (in the best way!) while learning the traditional art of Kokedama. Using moss, string, and tropical plants, you’ll create a unique arrangement that can be hung, displayed on a plate, or nestled in your favourite pot. All materials are provided—but please bring gloves if you’d prefer to keep your hands clean!
🌿 About Your Instructor:
Toby began as a floral delivery driver and worked his way up to designing floral arrangements and plant installations for high-profile clients—including the Prime Minister and Pamela Anderson. Trained in Kokedama by master florist Soula Baltas, Toby draws inspiration from our lush local ecosystems and years of experience with tropical plants. His teaching style is fun, approachable, and full of knowledge you’ll actually remember.
Come ready to create, connect, and leave with your very own piece of living art—and the confidence to care for it long after the moss has dried.
