Plant-Your-Own Station
A hands-on favor bar where guests pot their own small plant into a ceramic container to take home, a fresh alternative to a typical party favor that keeps growing long after the event.
What It Is
The plant-your-own station is a hands-on favor bar where guests pot their own small plant into a ceramic container to take home, trading a typical grab-and-go favor for a living one. A trained attendant guides each guest through the potting process.
Guests choose from a variety of plant types, from succulents and cacti to air plants and lucky bamboo, and pot their selection into a ceramic container to keep. Because the plant keeps growing long after the event, the favor becomes something guests actually use and see day to day, rather than something that gets set aside.
It is a fresh, low-key alternative to a typical party favor table, and works well as a steady activation guests can visit at their own pace throughout the event.
Where It Works
The plant-your-own station works well at any event looking for a favor guests will actually keep and use, and is especially popular at events with a wellness or garden-party feel.
How Long It Runs
The plant-your-own station typically runs for up to 4 hours, staffed by an attendant for the full activation window. It works well as an open-house style favor station guests can visit at their own pace.
