PlantShed is pleased to announce a weekend event line-up celebrating the first anniversary of our floral café location at 1 Prince Street in Nolita and a weekly workshop program that will launch as the team heads into year two. Join PlantShed on Thursday, October 17th through Saturday, October 19th, for a series of complimentary hands-on floral and plant workshops in honor of the Nolita shop’s first year that will kick off PlantShed’s Weekly Workshop Series.
Debuting this month, the Workshop Series will feature a new schedule of hands-on classes held weekly between PlantShed’s two floral café locations at 1 Prince St. in Nolita and 555 Columbus Ave. on the Upper West Side. These design-centric workshops, taught by industry-leading horticulturalists and influencers, will be open for booking to the public and offer an intimate, enjoyable environment to expand guests’ knowledge of plants and flowers.
In addition to the introduction of hands-on workshops at the 1 Prince location, PlantShed will also be adding Have a Nice Daisy Botanical Beverages to location’s menu. These healthful zero-proof libations made with homemade, holistic ingredients will add to the shop’s offering of coffee, pastries, plants and flowers. HaND offers seasonally-inspired beverages featuring homemade flower and herb infusions, tinctures, fruits, roots, minerals, adaptogens, and add-ons such as tonic shots as well as homemade flower and herb infusion shots.
During the upcoming anniversary weekend, guests will have the opportunity to explore the techniques of building hand-tied bouquets or join PlantShed’s horticulturalists in boosting their plant knowledge while sampling the company’s freshly updated fall menu of café beverages.
Below, you will find the full weekend line-up of events. To reserve a free spot in an anniversary weekend workshop, guests can RSVP at EVENTS@PLANTSHED.COM, as space will be limited. The new fall menu will be offered all three days with an in-store floral installation on Thursday.
