all the details
The week before the event, you'll receive a short guide with workshop login info, and a list of materials and ingredients we suggest you have ready. We'll keep it simple, we promise!
We'll gather together on Zoom, where you'll learn how to plant and care for a lush container herb garden, and get inspiration for how to harvest and use your herbs too with master gardener Leelee Dameron from Leelee's Garden. Then, we'll switch gears, and you'll learn from our guest mixologist, Lov Carpenter from Made with Lov, how to create three herb-forward cocktails.
We highly encourage you to plant and mix alongside us, but you can also opt to sit back, sip your favorite summer beverage, and learn from our demos too.

what people are saying about our recent workshops
I did a virtual workshop with [Leelee's Garden] during the stay at home order, and it was phenomenal! She mailed me all the materials I needed to complete a hanging air plant display, and I was able to join a zoom where she walked us through step by step! It was so much fun, and was such a great creative outlet to do something I never would have been able to do otherwise! Photo included of the finished piece she helped me create - I love it! - Erin N.
I've had the pleasure of attending two events by Leelee and would highly recommend her to everyone. She has an incredible passion and knowledge for what she does. As someone without a green thumb, she has inspired me to try my hand at creating a small garden this year. - Megan T.
This was such a great and unique class! It was a fun way to spend time with my friend and do something new. The gardens all turned out beautiful and I am excited to have a new decoration piece on my home. -Shalini T.
Truely enjoyed this class. Air plants were totally new to me and I was able to learn all about them while just playing around. It was the perfect balance of information and fun. I would definitely take another class with Leelee. - Rachel Hernandez
This was a fun, relaxed class. Leelee was attentive, informative, and sweet. Skill and creativity aren't required to be a success in this class. I would recommend it to anyone seeking something fun and different to do. - Diane
This class was amazing!!!!! LeeLee is so kind, helpful, and knowledgeable!! I can't wait to take other classes she offers!!!! -Mary Alice
Leelee gave use the perfect mix of great information and time to get creative and have fun with the project. I felt like I left the class learning a lot about the plants we were working with and very proud of my cool vertical garden. I took 2 friends with me to the class and we had a fantastic and memorable girls night out. I will definitely be back for another class! - Rachel

Leelee is an amazing teacher. She’s so full of ideas...and so full of patience! This was my second class with her and I’m addicted. Her classes are fun, yet you leave with some skills you can use again and again! - Nicole M.
This was such a fun class! My mom, brother and I went together and had a blast. Leelee was very helpful and gave us great direction while also letting us have creative freedom to make our wreaths our own. She brought high quality materials for us to work with and a high level of energy. Would definitely take a class from her again! - Sarah H.
