Kokedama: The Art of Living Moss Balls

Presented by Flowers by 4Roots

Join us at 4Roots Farm for a peaceful, hands-on workshop exploring the art of kokedama, the Japanese-inspired practice of creating living moss ball plants. 🌿 Often described as “living sculptures,” kokedama are crafted by encapsulating a plant’s root system in a hand-formed soil ball, wrapping it in soft live moss, and securing it with string for a beautifully organic display.

Led by a special guest instructor, this immersive class invites guests to slow down, work with their hands, and connect with nature through a creative and meditative process. Guests will learn the techniques behind building and caring for their kokedama while designing a unique piece that can be displayed in a decorative dish or hung as natural living art.

Set against the beauty of the farm, this experience blends craftsmanship, nature, and mindfulness into a relaxing and inspiring evening. Guests will leave with their own handmade kokedama and the knowledge to continue caring for it at home.

All materials are provided—just bring your creativity and curiosity.

🌿 Guided Instruction: Learn the traditional art of kokedama, including shaping, moss wrapping, plant care, and display techniques.

🪴 Natural Materials & Plants: Work with live moss, specialty soils, twine, and a curated plant selection to create your own living moss ball.

✨ Handcrafted Kokedama: Create and take home a beautiful living sculpture designed to display in a dish or hang as natural art.

🥂 Light Refreshments: Sip and snack while you slow down and create surrounded by the peaceful beauty of the farm.

Limited spots available—reserve your seat for this relaxing, nature-inspired workshop!
