Terrarium Workshops & DIY Stations for Your Next Event

Create something living with Roots & Rivers. We bring real plants, live moss, and everything your guests need to build their own enclosed terrariums at your location.

Choose Your Experience

Our guided workshops bring everyone together for about an hour of step-by-step building and learning.

Our buffet-style DIY stations let guests walk up throughout your event and create at their own pace, with instructions and help available.

What Is a Terrarium?

A terrarium is a miniature ecosystem enclosed in glass. Water cycles through the container, helping the plants and moss thrive with very little maintenance. No green thumb required.

For Celebrations, Community Programs & Staff Events

From birthdays and weddings to library programs, school activities, corporate gatherings, and collaborative pop-ups, we bring a creative, hands-on experience to your guests.

Serving NJ, PA, NY and we travel!
