Step into the world of Japanese gardening with Rieko Asano, third-generation master gardener of Asano Mokkousho. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll create your own seasonal 15” plant arrangement while learning time-honored techniques in soil, plant care, and design.
The workshop includes a set of high-quality gardening tools and all the materials you’ll need to bring your creation to life. More than just a class, this is an invitation to connect with the craftsmanship of Tsubamesanjo—a region celebrated worldwide for its artistry and tools.
Join us at the Tsubamesanjo Artisan Fair and bring home not only a beautiful arrangement, but also the tools and knowledge to keep your gardening practice flourishing. Space is limited—reserve your spot today and let your creativity take root!

From the beginning, their approach was rooted in listening to users and designing tools that meet real needs. Today, under the guidance of third-generation master gardener Rieko Asano, the company continues this legacy—crafting thoughtful, durable gardening tools that blend tradition, innovation, and care for the natural world.
