The Handheld Forest - Bring a tiny forest into your living room

The Handheld Forest – Build Your Own Living Ecosystem

Step into a world in miniature.

In this hands-on WildHearth workshop, you’ll design and build your own thriving terrarium, a tiny forest you can hold in your hands. We’ll explore how closed ecosystems work, how moisture cycles within glass, and how to layer materials properly for drainage, root health, and long-term balance.

You’ll learn how to select compatible plants, work with moss, and arrange natural hardscape elements to create depth, texture, and a sense of quiet wonder. This is part art, part science. And entirely alive.

Your workshop kit includes everything you need: the perfect glass vessel, carefully selected plants, moss, soil, drainage materials, and natural hardscape elements, all ready for you to build your own miniature world during class.

Come create something small, self-sustaining, and full of life.
