Level 2: Flowering & Fruiting Bonsai**Each ticket is designed for one guest and includes their own bonsai tree, tools, and workspace for a fully hands-on experience.**
Join us for an unforgettable experience of creativity, nature, and connection at El Weirdo, featuring one of our Level 2 bonsai species: the Olive tree. Known for its silvery-green foliage, textured bark, and timeless symbolism of peace and longevity, the Olive (Olea europaea) brings a classic, Mediterranean feel to bonsai that only becomes more beautiful with time.
This workshop is part of our Level 2: Flowering & Fruiting Bonsai series. Previous bonsai experience is recommended, as these species require a bit more attention to watering and care. If you’ve taken one of our Dwarf Jade beginner workshops, this is a great next step to expand your collection and skills.
In this immersive two-hour workshop, you’ll focus on the unique characteristics of the olive bonsai—developing structure, refining pruning techniques, and learning how to encourage healthy growth over time—guided step-by-step by seasoned instructor John Hunter. Simply show up ready to slow down, get your hands dirty (gloves are provided if you’d rather not), and enjoy the shared experience of creating something beautiful alongside others.
Each guest leaves with their own bonsai tree, styled by hand during the workshop, along with everything needed to care for it long after the experience ends. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, filled with conversation, smiles, and laughter—making it just as much about community and connection as it is about the art itself. Guests often leave feeling calmer, more connected, and genuinely proud of what they’ve created. It’s a refreshing alternative to the usual night out—creative, grounding, and surprisingly fun!
Perfect for returning guests, a creative date idea, team building, birthdays, and special celebrations.
Your ticket includes:
- One pre-pruned bonsai tree
- A premium Japanese ceramic bonsai pot
- Full use of professional bonsai tools
- Two hours of hands-on, guided instruction
- A curated take-home care kit (tote bag, spray bottle, mini shears, fertilizer, fertilizer basket, Zen Den sticker, and detailed aftercare instructions)
Come for the bonsai. Stay for the zen. Leave with a living work of art.
