Plant, Design & Grow: Fall Container Garden Workshop

Create a professionally designed fall container in this hands-on planting workshop, perfect for gardeners of all skill levels. Each participant will build a custom seasonal arrangement using a curated selection of fall plants chosen for color, texture, and longevity. To simplify the process and ensure consistent results, all designs will be created in a standard-sized planting sleeve (fits a 12.5” ceramic container). This allows for easy transport and a seamless drop-in fit once you return home. Participants are encouraged to bring measurements and photos of their containers to ensure compatibility. We’ll begin with a brief overview of container design principles, including plant combinations, spacing, and how to create balanced, eye-catching arrangements for the fall season. From there, you’ll be guided step-by-step as you plant your own container insert using provided soil, fertilizer, and high-quality plant material. You’ll leave with a finished arrangement ready to drop into your favorite pot—making it easy to refresh your porch or garden with minimal effort.
