Houseplant Academy: Succulent and Wildcrafting Pumpkin Workshop (In-Person)
Thursday, October 8th, 12-1PM
Celebrate the autumn season by crafting a wild, earthy masterpiece at our Succulent and Wildcrafting Pumpkin Workshop! This hands-on session combines the vibrant beauty of living succulents with natural elements gathered straight from the woods. You will learn how to design an uncarved heirloom pumpkin topped with a lush arrangement of plants, wild pinecones, dried seed pods, colorful autumn leaves, and rich forest mosses. Because the pumpkin is never carved, your unique, woodland-inspired centerpiece will remain fresh for months, and the succulents can be replanted afterward to grow for years to come. Small pumpkins provided--sizes will vary depending on availability.
Registration is required.
$20/person, please call 678.377.4010 or send us an email to register and to make the payment.
