The Plant Bar at Ojai + Fox
Create • Connect • Get Dirty
The Plant Bar at Ojai + Fox Social Club is a relaxed, hands-on space where you can slow down, get creative, and bring a little nature into your world.
From succulent gardens and tropical terrariums to air plant displays, mossy creations, and miniature worlds, there's something for every imagination.
One vessel. One price. Everything you need to create.
Our all-inclusive creations include your chosen vessel, a balanced selection of standard plants, and the substrates and natural materials needed to bring your vision to life. No green thumb required. No artistic experience necessary. Just come play!
How It Works
1. Choose Your Vessel
Every creation starts with a vessel that inspires you.
Explore our ever-changing collection of glass terrariums, hanging globes, bowls, planters, trays, and unique finds.
Your vessel price includes your standard plants and building materials, so you can focus on creating instead of adding up the cost of every little detail.
2. Choose Your Plants
What kind of little world will you create?
Depending on your vessel, explore possibilities like:
Succulent gardens
Air plant creations
Tropical terrariums
Closed terrariums
Living moss gardens
Miniature and fairy gardens
Our team will help you select a beautiful combination of plants that suit your vessel, have room to grow, and thrive together.
3. Get Creative!
Now for the fun part!
Choose from our collection of soils, sands, stones, mosses, and natural finishing materials.
We'll gather your selections, prepare your station, and help you get started.
Want to add a little extra personality? Specialty plants, 3D-printed miniatures, crystals, and premium embellishments are available for an additional charge.
Then settle in, get your hands a little dirty, and make something completely your own.
Not feeling crafty? Browse our ready-made creations, handcrafted at the Fox and ready to take home or gift!

The Plant Bar FAQ
-
Your vessel, a balanced selection of standard plants, and all the basic substrates and natural materials needed to complete your creation. We'll help you choose plants that work well together and have room to grow.
-
There's no fee to reserve your spot or use the Plant Bar workspace. You simply pay for the vessel, and any optional extras you choose.
Prices vary depending on what you create, so you can keep things simple or go all out!
Special workshops and seasonal projects may have their own set pricing.
-
Perfect!
You do not need any plant knowledge or crafting experience to visit the Plant Bar.
We’ll help you choose plants and materials that belong together and walk you through the basic construction of your project.
You still get to make all the fun decisions.
The goal isn’t for everybody to leave with the same thing.
It’s for you to leave with something that feels like yours.
-
Not necessarily! You're welcome to stop by during regular spa hours or join us for our dedicated Sunday Plant Bar sessions.
Reservations are recommended for Sundays to help us plan for seating and supplies, but walk-ins are welcome whenever space and staffing allow.
-
Your workspace is reserved for up to 90 minutes.
You absolutely do not have to use the entire 90 minutes. Some smaller projects may take considerably less time.

Nope.
That’s what we’re here for.

Not at all.
You can browse the available vessels and plant styles when you arrive and decide what catches your eye.
-
No — and that’s part of the fun.
Our selection will change with season, availability and whatever interesting things we find.

Absolutely! We welcome families who want to get creative together.
During regular spa hours (Wednesday–Saturday), the Plant Bar is best suited for older children and teens who can comfortably participate in their own creations while maintaining a calm atmosphere for our spa guests.
Sundays are our most family-friendly Plant Bar days! Younger children are welcome to join in with a parent or responsible adult who can help them throughout the activity. We also offer seasonal crafts and special projects designed with families in mind.
Children must remain accompanied and supervised by an adult. The Plant Bar is a shared creative experience, not a drop-off activity.
-
If there is no reservation immediately following yours and seating is available, we may be able to give you additional time.
However, during busy periods we ask guests to respect the 90-minute reservation window so everyone has a chance to create.
