Have you always wanted your very own bonsai tree, but don't know where to start? Are you concerned about buying a tree without knowing how to keep it alive and happy? Our Bonsai Basics Workshop hosted right here at New England Bonsai (In Bellingham, MA), is designed to give bonsai beginners all the information they need to grow a happy, healthy bonsai tree. You will receive a jade tree that you will have the opportunity to learn on. We have a proven format. You can be assured you will receive an excellent experience along with the knowledge needed to start this great hobby. You'll come away with full confidence to keep your tree, train it, and turn it into a beautiful addition to your home that you'll cherish for years. After touring the greenhouse, selecting your tree and pot, the fun begins. The instructor will help you transform, transplant, trim, and prune your tree. After a couple of hours, you'll get to go home with an awesome bonsai tree you know how to care for. NOTE FOR ADULTS: The $45 fee is only if you would like to make a tree for yourself! If you would like to attend as just a chaperone at no additional cost, please email customercare@gssne.org so we can add you to the roster. Daisies receive gardening patch; Brownies and Juniors recieve JR Gardener badge, but Brownies must wait until they bridge to put it on their uniform.
