Little Leaf Essentials
Because, Plants!

That’s why we’ve dreamed up a calendar full of hands-on events and workshops designed to spark your imagination and deepen your love for all things green and growing, even if that’s you!

Painted Tales Book Paver Party
Cost: $40
Your favorite book… but make it garden art. We’re teaming up with Curious Turtle Bookstore for a brand-new bookish night at Little Leaf!
And we’ve got the perfect person leading the paintbrushes. If you’ve seen the incredible book mural in the back of Curious Turtle’s shop, you’ve already seen Katy’s work. This time, she’s helping you create the art!
Choose a favorite book cover and recreate it on a paver stone—perfect for a bookshelf, porch, garden, or tucked among your plants. No painting experience needed. Just bring your book inspiration and come ready to have some fun.
