What You Will Make
With guidance from the host team, each guest plants a selection of succulents into a pumpkin and finishes it with natural elements. Everyone chooses their own mix of shapes and colors, so the planters come out looking different around the table.
The result is a one-of-a-kind living centerpiece for a dining table, mantel or front step. This is a seasonal experience available for a limited time each fall, which makes it a nice tradition for groups that like to mark the change of season together.
Why Groups Enjoy It
The setting does a lot of the work: a calm room full of plants, crystals and music where people naturally slow down. The activity is beginner friendly, so it suits fall team bonding activities for coworkers who just want to connect and make something without pressure.
Group sizes run from a single guest up to 75, so it works for friends, couples and departments alike, and it is one of the simpler team building activities for small groups to organize. Teams looking for creative team building activities outside the office get a change of scenery and a living keepsake.
Succulents are a forgiving choice for first-time plant owners. When the season ends, the arrangement can be enjoyed as it is for a while, and guests who want to keep growing can ask the team for simple care tips before they head home.
Occasions This Fits
- Fall team outings and team building activities
- Gatherings with friends during the fall season
- Birthday and bachelorette parties
- Date ideas for couples
- Gift experiences for mom, for her or for couples
About the Host
The experience is hosted at a women-owned plant boutique in Downtown Campbell, a short drive from San Jose. Born from a vision of healing through plants, the lounge was created as a space to slow down, reconnect and enjoy nature, creativity, music and community. It offers thoughtfully curated plants, houseplant care services, intimate workshops and events, and a collective of local women makers and artists.
The owner, a mom of three, describes the business as minority female-owned, built on connection and togetherness through plants. Guests consistently rate the lounge 4.9 out of 5, and recent visitors describe the space as beautifully curated.
Every item in the shop is chosen with intention, with a focus on small businesses, local makers and pieces sourced from other female-owned businesses. Beyond workshops, the lounge hosts music nights and offers personal plant shopping, so it is a welcoming place to linger after class and browse for a new houseplant to take home alongside your creation.
How the Session Runs
- Arrive at the lounge and settle in among the plants
- Choose your succulents and natural elements
- Plant and arrange them in your pumpkin with guidance
- Add finishing touches until it feels complete
- Take your living centerpiece home
Good to Know
- Beginner friendly, with all materials provided
- Bring just yourself and be ready to create
- Groups range from 1 to 75 guests at $55 per guest for the medium pumpkin
- The host can also travel within 20 miles of Campbell for a private class
Tips for Organizers
Pricing is per guest, so the total scales with your final headcount and every guest leaves with a planter. Mention when you book if some guests would prefer the small or large pumpkin, since those sizes carry their own per-guest prices, and ask about having the host come to your venue within about 20 miles if your group would rather stay put.
Plan Your 2026 Fall Gathering
