It’s been a while since I’ve conducted a workshop! I’m back with some new workshops – Grow Your Own Salad Workshop, and The Hanging Gardens Series. I’ve recently partnered with Within.sg as a venue and knowledge provider, so please come and check out this tranquil green space if you haven’t already.
Learn how to grow your own raw salad ingredients on your sunny balcony or backyard in this two-hour workshop . I will share essential gardening tips and know-how for growing salad greens that are well-suited for our climate. Guests will take home a gardening starter pack which includes seeds, a propagation kit, seed raising mix, fertiliser, pots and plant notes on vegetables and herbs such as kale, purslane, lettuce, beetroot leaves, beans and cucumber, and you will leave with the knowledge you need in order to grow, nurture and harvest your own food

Wish to introduce greenery to your space, but looking for something space-saving yet stylish? In our Hanging Gardens series, find out how to bring the garden indoors and make them a vertical feature in your home.
Over four sessions in July, you will be taught to construct attractive, swish-looking hanging planters that will thrive in a light filled room. These hanging garden designs include:
– Macrame planters
– Kokedama
– Himmeli geometric planters
– Hanging basket
Over the course of two hours per session, participants will receive all the materials they need to create at least one basic version of the planter they choose, and craft it for themselves to take home for nurturing. Participants will also receive instructions so they can recreate the planters at home.
Reservation is required at $128 per session, or $480 for all four sessions. Special pricing applies when you bring a friend.
Macrame planters
Macrame is an ancient art of decorative knotting, which can be used to create stunning plant holders. While there are many different styles, we will focus on two ways macrame can be applied to planters.
Kokedama
Also known as string gardens, Kokedama is a variant of bonsai cultivation, where plant roots are wrapped within a moss ball. It can be suspended using string, or left to sit on a piece of pottery, to be admired. We will make two Kokedamas for you to take home.
Himmeli Geometric Planters
Traditionally regarded as Christmas ornaments in Finland, Himmeli mobiles were originally made of straw, but now come in materials which include brass and plastic. In this session, we will create two Himmeli -styled geometric planters, perfect for displaying air plants.
Hanging Basket
The hanging basket is a very traditional style of planting flowers and trailing plants, and often features brightly coloured cottage flowers. Learn how to put together a charming hanging basket, versatile enough to be used both indoors and out.
