About this Event
Join me for a hands-on houseplant workshop while we enjoy the best of Chicago's beautiful weather!
I'm Austin, the UncommonPlantGuy, and I LOVE teaching these plant-crafting workshops!
Kokedama is the Japanese art of growing a plant in a moss-wrapped ball instead of a pot — no dirt, no drainage holes, no rules about getting it right. It's forgiving by design. So is this workshop!
If you've killed every plant you've ever owned, good — you're exactly who this is for.
Escape the constant connection of your phone, explore themes of wabi sabi, and learn everything you need keep your plant thriving for years to come!
This is 90 minutes of presence over perfectionism — hands in something real, a little dirt under the nails, no performing required.
See the FAQ below location info and BYOB policy.
