Running a small business is about more than selling products or services, it's about creating a positive impact within the community. That's why we were incredibly honored to be recognized as a Citizens Bank Community Champion.
This recognition celebrates small businesses that demonstrate innovation, community engagement, and a commitment to making a difference. For Terrart NYC, it was a meaningful acknowledgment of the work we've done to connect people with nature through terrariums, moss art, and educational workshops.
A Business Built Around Community
Since launching Terrart NYC, our mission has been simple: bring nature closer to people.
What began as handcrafted terrariums inspired by a family tradition dating back to 1984 has grown into a business focused on education, sustainability, and hands-on experiences. Through workshops, installations, and DIY projects, we strive to make nature accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds.
More Than Plants
Our work extends beyond creating beautiful ecosystems.
Through our workshops and community programs, participants learn about:
- The water cycle
- Ecosystem balance
- Plant care
- Sustainability
- Nature-inspired creativity
By combining education with hands-on experiences, we help people develop a deeper appreciation for the natural world.
Growing Through Partnerships
Over the years, Terrart NYC has partnered with corporations, schools, community organizations, and cultural institutions to deliver engaging botanical experiences throughout New York City.
We've welcomed more than 9,000 participants through terrarium workshops, moss wall experiences, and educational events, helping people reconnect with nature in meaningful and memorable ways.
A Recognition We Are Proud Of
Being selected as a Citizens Bank Community Champion was especially meaningful because it recognized not only our business growth, but also the positive impact we strive to create through education, sustainability, and community engagement.
As a small business, moments like these remind us why we started and motivate us to continue growing our mission.
Looking Ahead
Today, Terrart NYC continues to expand through corporate workshops, DIY Terrarium Kits, custom moss wall installations, and educational programming.
While our business has evolved over the years, our goal remains the same: inspire curiosity, creativity, and a stronger connection to nature.
We are grateful to Citizens Bank for recognizing our work and proud to be part of a community of entrepreneurs committed to making a positive difference.
