The first OSK is being planned for February 2025 and we will begin a project creating a stellar Shohin/mame bonsai with Itoigawa junipers. Participants will be responsible to bring their own materials, tools, soil etc — specific agenda for this pop-up will be sent out closer to the event. There will be no workshop fee for attending members. Plant material will be available for purchase from known respected sources at the workshop. Remember, these will be long term projects and the joy is in their crafting.
Click Here (member’s login required) to find the sign up genius link for our February workshop. You will need to indicate how many trees you wish to purchase for the pop-up. I would suggest participants start with a group of 5 whips. Left Coast Bonsai will have material available priced at $12.00 each
