Bonsai Concepts (previously called Basics) were created to allow you to begin your bonsai training with guided instruction and hands on assistance to be able to begin your bonsai education and improve the quality of your trees. Each meeting begins with a classroom session followed by our helping you with your trees. All are welcome to come and learn, with or without trees.
We meet from 12pm to 4pm at the Washington County Fairgrounds in the Lake Elmo/Stillwater area.

No one will go home with a “finished tree”. You cannot create a tree in one session. Each time you work on your tree, you will take steps to improve its’ health and create a more satisfying design.
Each class is independent, but similar in regard to the topics we will address.
We look forward to seeing you there.
