Kokedama Workshop

Kick your house plant game up a notch with the art of Kokedama! Kokedama, literally translated from Japanese means “moss ball”, is a ball of soil, covered with moss, on which an ornamental plant grows. The idea has its origins in Japan, where it is a combination of the nearai (literally “root wash,” but meaning “no pot”) bonsai and kusamono planting styles.

Join us in our heated event tent located behind the Gift Shop as we show you how to move beyond pots and grow indoor greenery in this fun alternative fashion. These methods can also be applied to be used outdoors when the weather warms. After completing our kokedama project, we will learn another great way to use moss by mounting house plants so they can be enjoyed beyond just growing them in pots.  We will provide all materials needed for these projects including plants, moss, soil, mounting material, and more.

This workshop will be held outdoors, under the cover of a tent, with patio heaters: please dress accordingly.

Two class times: 10 AM – 12 PM or 2 PM – 4 PM:

COVID-19 Considerations:

The safety of our guests and employees is of the utmost importance during this, and all events/gatherings at Durant at Red Ridge Farms.  The following safety precautions have been strictly implemented:

Stay Home when Appropriate 

• If you are experiencing COVID-19/flu-like symptoms, have a temperature, or have been exposed to someone who has tested positive for COVID-19 in the past 14 days, do not attend this event or visit the property.  Contact your health care provider immediately. 

Wear a mask or face covering

• Masks are required for all attendees and employees, at all times. 

Social distancing

Cover your coughs and sneezes

• Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze.
• Throw away used tissues in a lined trash can.

Clean your hands often

• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. This is especially important after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing; going to the bathroom; and before eating or preparing food.
• Use hand sanitizer if soap and water are not available. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol, covering all surfaces of your hands and rubbing them together until they feel dry.
• Soap and water are the best options, especially if hands are visibly dirty.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.

Avoid sharing personal items
