Evergreen Planter Workshop & Decorating Bar
Create a beautiful patio pot filled with freshly cut evergreen boughs to enjoy on your doorstep all winter long! Join us for our most popular seasonal tradition. Our fresh evergreen planters are long-lasting and require very little winter care.
Two Ways to Participate: Same Time, Same Price!
FULL WORKSHOP - Arrange Greens & Decorate
Create your planter from start to finish! Arrange your own spruce tips and assorted fresh greens, then personalize your planter with decorations of your choice. Staff will be available to help throughout the process. Decorations are not included in base workshop fee.
DECORATING BAR - Decorate a Pre-Greened Planter
Skip the assembly and start with a planter that already has the fresh greens arranged! Choose your favorite decorations and add your personal touch. Perfect for returning participants or anyone who prefers to focus on decorating. Decorations are not included in base workshop free.
Both options are $44.99 + tax per person. The Full Workshop and Decorating Bar take place at the same time and share the same demonstration. We have separate spaces to work unless you are in a group with mixed registrations.

Your $44.99 (plus tax) registration includes:

Spruce tips and assorted fresh evergreen greens

Important — Please Read Before Registering
Please leave personal decorations at home!
To keep checkout accurate and avoid confusion, please do not bring personal decorations or items saved from previous workshops. You are welcome to add those to your planter at home afterward.
Registering for multiple people?
You may register family or friends together! Select the total number of planters you or your group wishes to create when booking. Pay per planter, not per person. If your group includes both Full Workshop and Decorating Bar participants, remember to specify for each to allow correct supply preparation.
