Join this terrarium class in Brighton and create your very own stunning open terrarium using a beautiful selection of cacti and succulents – a miniature landscape that's entirely yours, displayed in a gorgeous cream-coloured metal planter.
Over 1.5 hours, you'll learn how to mix the perfect free-draining soil, carefully plant your chosen specimens, and design a unique little world that reflects your taste and creativity. You'll have access to a huge range of decorative materials – bark, gravel, sand, stones, moss – so you can craft exactly the scene you're imagining.
You'll leave with your finished open terrarium ready to brighten your space – low-maintenance, visually striking, and a genuine reflection of your own creative choices.
Please note: Each booking is for one person creating one terrarium. Due to space limitations, we're unable to accommodate shared builds – if two people would like to attend, two workshop spaces must be booked.

Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 4 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we may cancel the session; if that happens, we'll inform you and let you choose between a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.
