Menu
Create your own little garden oasis with minimal space required. You’ll build a planter (roughly 15”L x 15”D x 18”H) from reclaimed wood, large enough to hold a 5 gal. pot (provided). Learn to measure, cut to length and fasten your wood together.
Please note we will use materials available in the warehouse at the time of the workshop so the finished piece may look slightly different from the sample.
