Budgeting Workshops Sydney

Plant Doctors Monthly Workshop

The Plant Doctor and our little crew are passionately sharing the art of indoor house plant care, so that more people can have more greenery in their lives. Watching plants grow and thrive is such a rewarding experience (and stress-free once you know what you’re doing!) and plants are extremely good for our health and well-being. Plus, our workshops are experiences which keep on giving! You get to take home a beautiful plant creation which you can watch grow and thrive, as well as you and your loved ones learning knowledge, craft, and creativity skills that you can use for a lifetime. We hold our plant workshops once a month on a Sunday Tickets are bought here: [Tickets ](https://www.theplantdoctor.com.au/workshops)

February Drinks

A relaxed Saturday drinks meetup for normal people who want their money less chaotic and to learn about investing — **no gurus, no upsells, no scams.** **This month...** If spreadsheets and tracking apps make you bored, guilty, or overwhelmed… you’re not alone.
