Posted

Seekonk, MA – Seekonk Public Library is excited to announce a unique gardening demonstration on the art of Kokedama at the library on Thursday, September 12 at 6 PM. Kokedama, which translates to "moss ball," is a centuries-old practice originating in Japan. Sometimes called "poor man's bonsai," it involves encapsulating the roots of a plant in a ball of soil and moss, creating a striking and self-contained display often to be hung indoors. During this demonstration led by the Bristol Garden Club, you will learn about the history and cultural significance of this technique as they create a Kokedama masterpiece live using just plants, soil, moss, and string. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or a newcomer, the Kokedama program promises to be an enriching experience which you can explore and practice on your own!
