Moss Garden Workshop

Gather in front of the woodstove, sipping mulled cider & create your own living moss garden. Then enjoy a delicious café lunch and house made treats.

Enjoy a unique gardening experience at Foraged Florals’ permaculture flower farm in New Ross. Nestled in the forest, you’ll hear expert insights and learn how to create your own living moss garden. Feel the textures of the different mosses, learn about their meaning, and tap into your creativity as you shape your garden. Living moss gardens are ever changing, as spring bulbs bloom and provide a beautiful connection to nature indoors over the winter months. Before or after your workshop, head over to The Hearth Room Café for all day brunch, lunch or a latte and house made treats.
