  • Schedule a Specialized Workshop for your home school group, study group, girl's day out, etc. Specialized workshops can be fun and educational - and can be anything from a how-to to hands-on.

  • Field trips with Dr. Patti! Dr. Patti Nagai is a horticulturalist, garden writer and educator, with an encyclopedic level of plant knowledge. If you have a question - Dr. Patti has an answer! Email us to schedule your creative talk or workshop. Age doesn't matter - plants are for EVERYONE!

  • Do you have a future Eagle Scout? We love working with Boy Scouts and other groups. If your prospective Eagle Scout would like some real-life landscaping or gardening experience, email us for more information.
