Come learn how growing flowers can become an intentional practice for caring for yourself!
About this Event

This workshop will provide an overview of foundational flower growing practices, alongside reflective, therapeutic exercises that support emotion regulation, self-compassion, and overall mental well-being. Through guided discussion and hands-on learning, you’ll explore how tending to flowers can become a grounding, supportive wellness practice.


Topics will include:

  • How to assess your growing space with curiosity
  • Thoughtful crop planning and seed selection
  • Seed-starting basics and preparing for planting
  • Ways to approach flower growing with intention and care—for both plants and self


Whether you’re growing flowers outdoors or using flower growing as a metaphor for personal growth, you’ll leave with practical tools to support intentional growth and well-being. Seed-starting kits and journals will be provided!
