Milford plans combination plant and shopping party

A terrarium is a type of dish garden made up of plants that tend to do well together, and a Milford workshop will be preparing these mini plantings.

A local small business has set the date for a combination of a planting party and private shop, and it has been scheduled for Lost and Found, which is at 125 Broad Street. Tickets are $55 each, and everyone is reminded to keep their purse or wallet handy for the special shopping experience that will follow the indoor gardening.

There is enough room in the activity to accommodate up to six individuals, and anyone who is a monthly member will be offered a discount. To help make the function feel even more festive, champagne will be poured and light bites will be served. Everyone will be able to take their terrarium home with them at the end of the evening.

Small businesses often use outside-the-box promotional ideas to help build their customer base and boost sales. A flyer printing company will be happy to help spread the word, and can prepare a variety of styles of publications.

The DIY Terrarium and Private Shopping event will be kicking off the holiday season in Milford on Sunday, December 1. Its scheduled start time is 4:00 pm, and it will wind up at 6:00 pm.
