Want to learn more about Bonsai?

Bonsai Classes will be held on Saturday when posted.  We will use Sunday as the rain date. Unfortunately we cannot hold as many classes as we would like as we are busy in the spring with our festivals. In 2020 we will hold more workshops where you can bring in a bonsai or purchase one and we will work on the bonsai for a nominal fee. It’s a great way to see many trees worked on at any given time .  The class will start at 10:00 am and run for two plus hours with a break in the middle.  Refreshments and a light snack will be served. Please sign up by emailing us which day you will be able to attend or sign up below by purchasing a ticket.
