Sustainable corporate planting workshops in Melbourne & Victoria
Bring your team together for a meaningful experience that combines indoor planting, connection and a fresh perspective on waste.
Led by Jackie Yong and the Soilz Alive team, our hands-on workshops introduce an unexpected way to nourish plants: reusing hair as plant food. It’s a practical example of giving a discarded material a new purpose, brought to life through an activity your team can enjoy together.
For your next team-building day, workplace sustainability event or corporate gathering, make room for something green.
“Only positive feedback from the people that joined [the workshop]…It was a fun way to learn how being sustainable to this level could have such a huge impact. My plants are doing so well. I’ve noticed I don’t need to water them as much as my other plants and they are thriving.”
— Megan Holzer Executive Assistant to Vittorio Fico, Chief Operations Officer

A team experience rooted in reuse
There’s more to a Soilz Alive workshop than potting a plant.
As colleagues get their hands in the soil, they discover how reused hair can become plant food. This simple idea makes resource reuse tangible and opens up conversations about what we throw away—and what we could use again.
It’s an opportunity to connect beyond the working day, create something together and see sustainability from a different perspective.
Jackie sees possibility in the things others throw away. Her curiosity about reusing hair helped shape Soilz Alive, bringing together her love of hair, passion for soil health and determination to give a discarded material a new purpose.
Today, she brings that same energy to our corporate planting workshops. Alongside the Soilz Alive team, Jackie guides participants through potting an indoor plant while sharing the story behind turning hair into plant food.
Her approach is welcoming, practical and full of enthusiasm, with space for questions, conversation and getting your hands in the soil. It’s a chance for your team to connect with the person behind the idea—and discover how a little curiosity can inspire a different way of thinking about waste.
