Terrarium workshops in London

Name: Public workshops
Brand: Jar and Fern

We host terrarium workshops for the public across London. Come along and learn all about the history and science of terrariums, invented accidentally in the 1800's by Dr. Nathaniel Ward.

Your expert instructor will teach you how to create a terrarium that is both thriving and aesthetically pleasing. Everything you need will be provided, including materials, plants, equipment, a bag to take your terrarium home and a care guide.

You will learn how to care for your new terrarium, we will run you through the common mistakes people make and how to avoid any problems.

We regularly host workshops across London, often in Battersea Park. You can buy event tickets below. Our gift cards can also be used on either terrarium kits or workshops.

"Jar and Fern hosted a brilliant 'Terrarium Workshop' for a Google Team Building Event. The team absolutely loved it, there were 25 of us & everyone put their heart & soul into making their very own Terrariums. Jar&Fern were hugely accommodating & were hugely receptive to our last minute requests"

Carli Miller @ Google

"Jar & Fern have hosted 2 client workshops to showcase Gardeners World as a brand, and both times I have been very impressed. Excellent hosts with brilliant knowledge to share with participants, which really adds to the engagement of the activity. We always get really good feedback that they love their new office terrarium!"

Esme @ Immediate Media

"I love this company! I've been on one of their terrarium courses before and it was brilliant - so friendly and professional. Our terrariums are still going strong over a year later! I recently purchased a Kokedama kit from them during lockdown which was really good fun and we loved making them. Would definitely recommend this company to anyone interested in making their own terrariums, bottle gardens or kokedama plants!"
