Bonsai for Beginners Make & Take Workshop with Ben Childress!

Let’s shape something beautiful—one tiny tree at a time!

Curious about bonsai but not sure where to start? This hands-on class is the perfect introduction! We'll walk you through bonsai basics from choosing the right plant to pruning, styling, and care. Then, you’ll create your very own bonsai to take home, with guidance every step of the way.

We’ll provide everything you need: a plant, bonsai pot, gravel, soil, and wire, plus a beginner tool set (snipping scissors + pliers) that’s yours to keep!

Whether you’re a total newbie or just need a refresher, you’ll leave with a new bonsai, new tools, and the confidence to keep it thriving.

For this class we will be creating an indoor bonsai using a ficus plant.
