Spooky Cauldron Workshop: Tropical Plants | Lost & Found, Albany NY
Pick your cauldron, green or black, then fill it with live tropical plants and spooky decor until it's exactly as creepy as you want it. Two hours, everything provided, and it comes home with you the same night.
What you'll build
A cauldron planter, alive and overflowing. You pick green or black, then fill it with lush tropical plants, moss, and spooky decor. Some people go full witchy. Some go elegant and eerie. Both are correct.
The cauldron measures about 7.3" long by 6" wide by 5.5" deep, so there's real room to build something that spills over the edges the way a cauldron should.
Your seat includes
🖤 Your cauldron, green or black, your pick
🌿 Tropical plants
🪨 Soil, drainage, and preserved moss
🕸️ Spooky decor accents
🌱 Hands-on instruction from a Planter instructor
✨ Every tool you need, nothing to bring
📖 A care guide so it actually survives past Halloween
Good to know
Tropicals keep going year round, so this one lives well past October. The spooky decor comes out, and you've got a cauldron of houseplants.
Lost & Found is in Albany's warehouse district with a full bar and kitchen, available for purchase. Come solo, come with your crew, come in costume if the mood strikes. Beginners are the whole point, so if you've killed every plant you've ever owned, you're in the right room.
Pick your color at checkout. We only bring so many of each.
