What you'll do
Come and join us in Inner West Sydney's huge jungle warehouse makerspace. Stepping into a warehouse filled with over 350+ indoor house plants, you’ll be in the best place to do a plant workshop in Sydney.
You will get to do our infamous Rainforest Terrarium Workshop!
Most terrarium workshops have glassware that is open top, so they need to be watered. Our enclosed rainforest terrariums are luscious little worlds that are fully self-sustaining and self-watering. So you get to find it a sweet spot at home and then sit back, relax, and watch your tiny ecosystem thrive.
You will learn all about terrariums, terrarium plants, how to make a terrarium, what is the right glass for terrariums, what different substrate layers people do, how to make substrate, terrarium design, and so much more! You’ll make your own little lush plant world to take home and admire.
Your teacher will also coach you with some of the Plant Doctor’s tips for keeping indoor plants alive, so that you watch and care for your terrarium with confidence!
All our workshops are first-timer friendly, people of all skill levels and ages are welcome. All materials and terrarium plants (3) are provided, and we will have some refreshing drinks for you (alcoholic, or non-alcoholic).
Everything you learn, like the Plant Doctor’s substrate recipe and functional layer design, you can also apply to any cool glassware you might find!
If you’d like to have your own private rainforest terrarium workshop for a team building activity, a hen’s night activity, kid’s birthday party, school holiday activity, a baby shower, a blessing ceremony, Christmas party, adult birthday party, buck’s party activity, or similar, you can make a request on the right side of our Class Bento profile or workshop page click "Request a private class".

Your teacher
The Plant Doctor and our little crew are passionately sharing the art of indoor house plant care, so that more people can have more greenery in their lives. Watching plants grow and thrive is such a rewarding experience (and stress-free once you know what you’re doing!) and plants are extremely good for our health and well-being.
Step into Sydney's Inner West jungle warehouse makerspace for one of our weekend workshops to learn about indoor plants and plant craft, or we can bring the greenery workshops to you.
We run our weekend workshops monthly and anyone can attend. We run our private workshops around what works best for you. We do workshops for team building activities, a hen’s night activity, kid’s birthday party, school holiday activity, baby showers, blessing ceremonies, Christmas parties, adult birthday parties, buck’s party activities and more!
We love sharing the art of indoor house plant care, and all the creative craft practices that go along with it. Whether it’s through an Indoor House Plants 101 Workshop, a Terrarium Workshop, a Kokedama Plant Ball Workshop, a Macrame Pot Hanger Workshop, or our infamous Rainforest Terrariums Workshop. All these workshops are a great way to learn about indoor house plants, get crafty, and get creative!
Plus, our workshops are experiences which keep on giving! You get to take home a beautiful plant creation which you can watch grow and thrive, as knowledge, crafting, and creativity skills that you can keep for a lifetime!

Beware! This class has inspired me so much to continue building terrariums I am so worried I will keep every jar I get in contact with. The class was so simple and easy to follow. They explained every step in so much detail and were so informative with aftercare. Our silly cat had sadly broken the first terrarium but they were so kind to let us know where we can get replacements for each product. Such kind and passionate teachers. Love it.

Great vibe and really nice instructor - learnt a lot during the workshop and took home a really nice terrarium!
Sean Casey • Jan 2022
This was a really great starter workshop. My partner and I attended wanting to to do this as a little date activity, and around 20 people in total were in attendance. The distancing was good between groups, and everyone wore masks when they weren't having a sip from their drink.
The workshop space itself is on the roof of an older industrial building. It would likely still be quite muggy even during Autumn and Spring. It's really hot, so I would recommend wearing shorts and a T.
The instructors were super friendly, approachable and helpful for all our needs. Chris the instructor, when everyone else was out of the room, sneaked over and took some plants we wanted from other groups tables ;) hehehe
Left with 2 beautiful designs, a bit of knowledge, and a nice time away from home during this s****y time. Interested in their succulent workshop too! Might hit that up in winter maybe!
Angus McPherson • Jan 2022
Really great class! We learned a lot and came home with awesome terrariums and new skills.

Danni Sloan • Mar 2021
This was a very interesting and enjoyable workshop. The group size was good and the two coordinators spent time with everyone so help could be given and questions answered without problem. The girls knew their subject and were confident in delivery. The materials were all supplied and we were given variety in our choices. I will be looking at further workshops with the Plant Doctor!
Nicole Egan • Mar 2021
The teacher and their assistant were great. All products needed were readily available and the knowledge and help with wonderful. I look forward to watching my terrarium grow.

This class was such a fun night out with friends! Nat was so knowledgeable and the whole class was really well-paced. We were able to fully customise the terrarium with our choice of plants, rocks, sticks, shells and other goodies, but Nat was still happy to help out where needed. The steps were made really clear about what we need to do to keep these little ecosystems thriving at home too, so I left feeling confident that I could finally keep some indoor plants happy!

My tropical terrarium I was given turned mouldy.They use bamboo lids instead of glass & in ten days I’ve had2 throw it away.Not a good feeling.Also a better studio would of made the experience a lot more comfortable.The teachers were friendly but needed 2 give better step by step instructions.I felt so uncomfortable because of the heat in the studio that I just had2 cut class short & leave early.A disappointment
Teacher's response
Hi Kelly
So sorry to hear about your Terrarium. We did test the bamboo lids before we started using them for workshops and a month later they were doing really well so I’m really sorry you didn’t have the same experience. We have recently changed the containers we use, to glass-topped ones, so we would love to invite you back to make another one, or we will happily refund the cost of your workshop. We are also looking into investing in a larger fan for the front room, that day was undoubtedly VERY hot, I’m so sorry the experience wasn’t enjoyable. Ness

I bought this workshop for my boyfriend and his mother as a cute bonding experience. They came back with big smiles and beautiful new terrariums and told me they had a lovely time. The teacher was bubbly and provided great information about terrarium care, and offered lots of variances of decor for customisation. The only downside (no stars off for this at all since it was out of anyone's control) is that the workshop was on the top floor of a building, making it really hot during the workshop on that particular. A suggestion for future workshops is having items all on a more accessible level so that people who have back problems don't have to bend over to get things. 100% a great experience and would recommend!
Teacher's response
Hi Leyen,
Thank you so much for getting in touch with your thoughts and feedback!
We are so glad to hear they had an awesome time!
Your suggestions are much appreciated, and we will be putting materials higher where possible, thank you for pointing that out!
Yes, unfortunately the beautiful Nauti is in an uninsulated warehouse and does get warm when the weather does. It was very unlucky with the day being so hot.
But I am super glad they had a blast, they were both really lovely and made great design choices with their terrariums! Thanks for buying such a lovely gift!
Best,
