CRAFT YOUR OWN LIVING LANDSCAPE
Held inside our working production greenhouse, where we raise and nurture the plants you’ll find in our farm shop — this terrarium workshop invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and create something lasting and alive.
GUIDED BY OUR GROWER
Led by our Head of the Market Garden, Mark Phillips — whose diverse horticultural background brings colour, creativity and deep plant knowledge — you’ll learn to build your own miniature garden under glass. Mark will show you how to layer soils, select from a curated palette of specialty plants, and add natural stones and decorative touches to bring your terrarium to life. Each design becomes its own tiny landscape, shaped by your hands and imagination.
BEYOND THE GLASS
Mark will also share favourite propagation techniques and behind-the-scenes stories from our Silvan farm, reconnecting you with the quieter rhythms of growing and making.

MORE THAN JUST A CLASS
At Botaniculture, our workshops are an invitation to share in our way of working gently with nature. Like our seasonal floral design workshops and farmer-florist courses, this masterclass is rooted in sustainability, local growing and mindful craft. You’ll leave not only with a finished terrarium to enjoy at home, but also with a deeper understanding of plant care and design.
SLOW DOWN AND CREATE
Surrounded by rows of living greenery, the earthy scent of soil and the soft filtered light of the greenhouse, you’ll find space to pause, get your hands dirty and rediscover the simple joy of making something beautiful. It’s peaceful, grounding and deeply rewarding — whether you’re an experienced plant lover or simply curious to try something new.
All tools and materials are provided; all you need to bring is your curiosity and a willingness to slow down and create.
Step away from the everyday, breathe the fresh air, and join us at Botaniculture to craft something truly unique.
Private workshops available
