- Hold a corner of the forest in your palm -
The transparent glass bottle acts as a miniature atmosphere, enclosing a visible micro-ecosystem. The key difference between an open terrarium and a closed ecological bottle is the use of a bottle with a narrower opening to maintain humidity, which also creates a comfortable ecological environment for the plants. This makes it easier to learn and effortlessly bring a miniature landscape into your life. With just a little care, you can experience the wonders of nature and heal your mind and body while crafting this forest microcosm, an invention over a century old.

|Looking for a Team Building planting activity for groups of 10+?|
'NEIGHBOR FOREST' offers healing handicraft workshops designed around plants and nature. Our diverse course options cater to all ages and experience levels, allowing participants to connect with various plants through hands-on activities combined with horticultural therapy. This experience encourages people to get closer to plants, fall in love with nature, and discover new life perspectives.
|Benefits of Choosing Plants for Team Building|
From a horticultural therapy perspective, engaging in plant-related activities stimulates sensory perception – observation, touch, smell, and even taste. Through these activities, participants learn about the diverse characteristics of plants, understand their growth needs, and acquire professional skills in caring for potted plants. This process of connecting with nature helps to heal emotions, cultivate interests, foster camaraderie among employees, enhance cohesion, and spark creativity. It also brings greenery into the corporate environment, relieves stress, and boosts organizational vitality.
