Winter Moss Garden Workshop • January 18, January 25, February 8, February 15, 2025
“I still have my moss garden we made with you last year and will add some elements to make it a meditation garden." Moira Fraser
Gather in front of the wood stove for a unique gardening experience at Foraged Florals’ permaculture flower farm in New Ross. Nestled in the forest, you’ll hear expert insights and learn how to create your own living moss garden. Feel the textures of the different mosses, learn about their meaning, and tap into your creativity as you shape your garden. Living moss gardens are ever changing, as spring bulbs bloom and provide a beautiful connection to nature indoors over the winter months. Before or after your workshop, head over to The Hearth Room Café for all day brunch, lunch or a latte and house made treats.
- Package Includes: 2-hour Moss Garden Workshop at Foraged Florals: learn the meaning of moss and design principles to help to create a 12-inch living garden to take home with you to enjoy over the winter months. All required materials are included.
- Enjoy the aroma and taste of traditional Nova Scotia (non-alcoholic) mulled cider, heated on the wood stove.

Reviews of last year’s workshop:
“I loved working with all the elements, getting my hands dirty! Different textures are a highlight for me. Would I recommend this workshop? Empathically! Such attention to all of the elements and all of the participants. ...it was a special treat to share it with my young grandchildren. Thank you for welcoming them. Being able to watch the process through the eyes of a child as they built their own garden ws wonderful." ~ Moira F.
