L1 is pleased to partner with Raíces Plant Bodega for an afternoon dedicated to the art of growth and environmental stewardship. This hands-on workshop explores the concept of reciprocity and emphasizes how our natural surroundings thrive through intentional care and connection.

During the session attendees will select a vessel and pair it with a plant of their choice to create a fully personalized arrangement. To ensure a thoughtful experience for every guest pet-friendly plant varieties will be aviaable and professional care guides will be provided to support the long-term health of your greenery.

This event offers a unique opportunity to pause and engage with both the environment and our local community. Join us at the L1 Retail Store to cultivate something meaningful.

All materials will be provided. Space is limited, so register early!
