Terrarium Workshop

Build your own miniature ecosystem, in Sydney's Inner West massive jungle warehouse makerspace



1.5 hours Location Forest Lodge Class size 1 to 22 (public classes), 8 to 60   $89 (Afterpay available)

Come and join us at Sydney’s Inner City 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 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 terrarium plants alive, so that you can 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 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, click "Request a private class" on the right side of our ClassBento profile, or any of our workshop pages.

  • 4/5 from Julie Prince, attended Sep 2024: The teacher was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I have learnt the levels of soil and pebbles and also how to care for my succulents. I now have a lovely terrarium for my coffee table.
  • 3/5 from Ella Gao, attended Jul 2024: Lovely little outcome that I could bring home! Teacher is patient The venue is a bit too cold in a windy winter so It wasn't a perfect personally experience personally. Also have limitted choice in terms of plants.
  • 5/5 from Belle Henshaw, attended Nov 2023: Great instructors, very helpful, fun and interesting class. I went with my nieces and we all loved our succulent creations :)
  • 5/5 from Monique Hulley, attended Nov 2023: Friendly staff, an really cool space to work in and a super cute result! My sister and I loved it.
  • 5/5 from Vanessa Mozayani, attended Feb 2023: Class was very well organised. Teachers were approachable and friendly. They explained the process for creating a terrarium well, went through after care.
  • 5/5 from Virginia Ware, attended Jan 2023: Vanessa and Nat were our fantastic Plant Doctors. Watching 28 excited females all endeavouring to make their Terrariums was hilarious. However their results were amazing thanks to the superb guidance of Vanessa and Nat. Sipping Tequila whilst creating our terrariums added to the wonderful happy atmosphere. Our party was held in our Club so Vanessa and Nat had to transport everything to us, so much stuff to bring However all was perfect, and the room left spotless afterwards. Thank you Vanessa and Nat for making it such a fun night. Another workshop would be fun in the future, please advise of me of any new workshops. A microphone would have been helpful - next time!
  • 2/5 from Natalie Cain, attended Jan 2023: • After the initial booking the class time was changed by the teacher • The selected venue, Nauti Studios, is an old building with questionable stairs and inadequate ventilation. There is no air con and the few fans that were available were not switched on. It was humid and hot! • You are promised drinks and a selection of nibbles, there were no nibbles. By law, a venue providing alcohol must provide food. Plus, given that the teacher chose to move it to a lunch time session AND nibbles are noted in the class description, they were expected. Our group left less than satisfied, hot and hungry. • The end result is not as lush as depicted in the promotional photos, as you are restricted to 3 small plants only. Be honest in your advertising. • This is not our first terrarium class but it will be our last with the Plant Doctor.
  • 5/5 from Serina Ma, attended Dec 2022: I would recommend this class for a team bonding activity or just to make some pretty terrariums. Elli and Sabrina were great instructors, informative and helpful. The tequila cocktails were a fun addition to the class! Would definitely do it again.
  • 5/5 from Roopa Gowda, attended Dec 2022: Well organised and knowledgable. It was very informative and professional. Teachers were helpful and cheerful
  • 4/5 from Evelyn Chung, attended Nov 2022: My daughter and i really enjoyed it, we were provided with all the materials, and learnt the correct proportion of rocks, sand and best mixture. In the end we made 2 beautiful succulent terrariums and also got to explore that part of Sydney. It was a wonderful day out!
  • 5/5 from Shakuntala Sengupta, attended Jun 2022: Really helpful teacher, and had a great experience. Was warm and welcoming atmosphere. Loved it!
  • 5/5 from Sanhy Kilian, attended Dec 2021: So much fun! I went with my team and we had so much fun! I would recommend it for any team event to exercise your creative side.

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!
