"Our team absolutely loved Brandi and her terrarium workshop! Less than half of our class consider themselves 'green thumbs,' but Brandi put all of our minds at ease with her encouragement and lesson about succulent care... I would highly recommend Brandi and her workshop for team builders!" - Tara P., LinkedIn
