Moss Terrarium Workshop


Have you ever wondered what goes on in the tiny world of mosses? In this workshop, we will be learning and discussing the basics of moss, including their environment, structure, and types of moss that you would find growing in Western New York. You will then construct your very own moss terrarium, complete with small decorations of your choice. We will go over moss maintenance, and you will be on your way with your own tiny moss world! All plant material and supplies are included. ‌ Meet your instructor, Ellie! Ellie is a newer face around the Gardens, having joined our team in August 2022 as our new Educator and Volunteer Coordinator. After growing up nearby in Akron, NY, Ellie went on to continue her education at SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Education and Interpretation. After graduating in the midst of the pandemic, she traveled and found a passion for educating people about science and the natural world in Syracuse and Colorado before moving to the city of Buffalo. Ellie has a passion for all aspects of the natural world, with special interests in prehistoric plants, birds of prey, and mycology. She is currently working on her Masters of Education part time at the University at Buffalo and enjoys cooking, painting, kayaking, climbing, and hanging out with her cats and tortoise in her free time!
