Lynn garden centre Dobbies to host free workshops for adults and children
A Lynn garden centre is hosting two free workshops to encourage customers of all ages to make a positive start to 2023.
Dobbies’ first Grow How session takes place on Saturday at 10.30am and will give customers a guide on how to incorporate houseplants into their home.
Experts at the Hardwick Road store will showcase the different air purifying houseplants available to buy, how to use them in your indoor spaces, all the benefits associated with having houseplants, and care tips on how to look after them.
Then on Sunday morning they will host the Little Seedlings Club for kids aged from four to 10, with free bookable sessions. Youngsters will learn how to have a wonderful new year in the garden, discovering the history of new year, traditions and resolutions, the luck and prosperity associated with eating black-eyed peas-beans, alongside plants to grow in January, seeds to sow and how to prepare your garden for the year ahead.

Dobbies’ partnership and events manager Sarah Murray said: “January is a great time to make plans and learn a new skill or hobby. We’re always looking to help sow some passion and encourage our customers in Lynn to try something new.
“Houseplants are a great way to enhance your space and improve your mood - not only will your home feel refreshed, but so will you. We’re looking forward to our houseplant Grow How event being a popular one. For our Little Seedlings, our workshop on making a positive start in the garden aims to be both motivational and inspiring for young gardening fans.
“We’ve thoroughly enjoyed our sessions throughout 2022 and are excited to kick off the year with these two, free workshops to help customers start as they mean to go on.”
Sustainability is at the core of Dobbies’ workshops and its horticultural experts will be showcasing the fantastic range of environmentally-friendly products available to purchase in-store.
