Leaf Jars

Hi, I’m Trish — wife, mum, creative soul and the plant-loving people person behind Leaf Jars. I’ve always loved helping people and sharing what I know, but my love of plants really grew during a tough season of life. Spending time with plants gave me a sense of calm, helped me manage my anxiety and slowly filled my home with greenery.And I certainly didn’t start out with a green thumb! I used to joke that I was a bit of a “plant killer”, but with patience, practice and a whole lot of learning along the way, that began to change. That journey is a big part of why I love running terrarium workshops today.There’s something really lovely about bringing people together around a table, giving them the space to slow down, get creative and have a little fun.One of my favourite moments is watching someone who walked in saying “I’m not creative” or “I can’t keep plants alive” leave with a terrarium they’re proud of and the confidence to care for it.But over the years, I’ve learnt that people come away with so much more than a terrarium. It’s the conversations, the laughter, the little surprises and the time spent doing something just for the joy of it.That’s what I hope you’ll experience when you join me around the workshop table — a warm welcome, plenty of encouragement and the freedom to create your own tiny world. No green thumb required!Because for me, Leaf Jars has always been about growing more than plants. And when I’m not running workshops or tending to my plants, you’ll usually find me spending time with my boys (my husband and son), catching up with family or friends over coffee… or following every Formula 1 race. I’m a true F1 tragic! ️
