We will spend an enchanting couple of hours at your party in which we have story time, gardening, and then become scientists with our magnifying glasses. Our big bin of worms makes the day happy and slimy – an essential component of the ‘experience’.Together we create lasting memories and wonderful miniature gardens for each guest to take home as a party favor! We keep the children totally immersed in gardening heaven while we are with your children- after all, there is nothing like being in nature!
School Gardens
Owner Ruth Steinberg encourages children in their love of gardening and the outdoors. Now in the time of Covid and home isolation, we have expanded our reach and have included a more comprehensive approach to our teaching. Little Saplings has been teaching nature crafting along with certain specialty curricula adapting lessons content to work in the outdoor setting. We have been teaching children to build skills while gardening. Woodwork, sewing, weaving, ceramic and other creative pathways.

OUR TESTIMONIALS
What Our Customers Say
We hired Little Saplings for my daughters 3rd birthday and had the best experience! Ruth and her assistant had the kids completely captivated for a solid hour which gave all the parents a chance to relax and socialize. The kids loved the books, the worms, the dirt, and each came away with a beautifully decorated potted plant to take home as a party favor. The program was perfectly paced for the little kids, and was enjoyed by the big kids too! Even the babies were getting in on the action! I can't say enough about how fun and magical it was. Thank you, Little Saplings, for making our daughter's big day so special.
There is something insanely magical about growing your own produce. Having a gardener who can create your vision, and help nurture such fragile, delicate little seeds of life, is vital to the success of such highly nutritious and delicious produce!
Ruth not only exudes positivity and love, but she is a pleasure to work with and is exceptional at finding the exact seed you are looking for. She’s a gem!
