Tipsy Terrarium Workshops 2020

Overview

Richmond's The National Hotel is giving you an excuse to change up your average Thursday night drinks with mates. The longstanding pub has once again invited The Plant Whisperer to host a tipsy terrarium workshop.

Throughout the 90-minute class, the host will walk you through the creation of a mini plant world, providing tips on plant selection and design, as well as soil composition and layering techniques. All terrarium materials are included in the ticket price — expect an array of tropical plants to choose from, plus a glass bowl, stones, soil, moss and figurines. And all experience levels are welcome, whether you entered the class a pro or are a repeat offender black thumb.

The bar will also be serving up all its usual bevvies throughout the workshop (to help provide some liquid creativity) — along with its Thursday night Korean fried chicken special. For $15, you get half a chook plus pickles, Kewpie mayo and bao. From 5–7pm, $7 pints of Mountain Goat, cider and house wine are also available.

The 1.5 hour class will cost $80, with drinks and food at the bar purchased separately. Bookings are a must.
