We offer workshops in 12 states and 16 markets, but we’re still a small business at heart. Our team juggles business operations by day and then we head out to teach workshops in the evenings. It’s a team effort fueled by passion and a commitment to sharing the art of bonsai and making sure our guests have a joy filled experience.

Our mission involves hauling vanfuls (yes, that’s a unit of measurement now) of tiny trees across the country, lovingly caring for them in backyard greenhouses and nurseries until it’s time for Shrub Norris, Notorious B. I. Tree, Mini Groot, Sir Bonsai-a-Lot, or Bonsaizilla to find their forever homes with you. Our mission is to share with you the calming, creative process of bonsai cultivation with a FUN and educational experience. We hope you have a wonderful new hobby.

Bonsai Bar is a fantastic corporate retreat and team-building experience. Nothing brings a team together like turning tiny trees into masterpieces—or engaging in a spirited debate over the “right” way to prune a ficus while armed with small, sharp tools. It’s collaborative, therapeutic, and just the right amount of wholesome and quirky. We'd love to do a workshop for your team.

Hosting our classes in these spaces helps small American businesses thrive on slower nights. Plus, we’re all about creating an atmosphere where people can sip, prune, and bond with friends, family, or that random guy named Dave who just really likes bonsai.

If you put all the bonsai stock end to end, that's approximately:

• 150,000 Subway Sandwiches
• 7,500 King-Sized Beds
• 375,000 Donuts
• 6 Million Post-It Notes

Or enough Legos to cover 25 Million brick-sized regrets.

We're told, so we're willing to believe it, that Bonsai Bar has taught the most beginner bonsai workshops in the world. If we're mistaken, please let us know. In the meantime, our marketing folks have called the Guinness World Records people to fact check that.
