What it is
Fifth Season Gardening’s Beginner Bonsai with Danny Coffey is a schedule-first, fee-printed education event at the garden center’s Carrboro, North Carolina store. The official Carrboro Upcoming Classes page prints the date, time window, all-in materials fee, beginner framing, instructor name, and a Buy Tickets link to Eventbrite. Students get a cultural/history intro, then practice repotting, wiring, and shaping; they leave with their own potted bonsai (ceramic pot, tree, and soil included). This listing is Learning. It is not filed as Nurseries (Fifth Season is a general garden center; this card is the bonsai class, not a bonsai-tree shop catalog), and it is not a membership bonsai club.
Who it’s for
Triangle / Chapel Hill–Carrboro area adults and beginners who want a dated, fee-printed hands-on workshop before committing to a longer club series. The page frames the class as beginner-friendly. People who only want to shop the garden center should use store hours separately from this workshop registration.
Why it’s listed
This is a first-party garden-center education page. It prints a dated 2026 session, an all-in fee with materials included, a street venue on the store page, and a registration path. It is curriculum and schedule first, not a shop blur. (Atlanta Botanical Garden Gainesville Introductory Bonsai Aug 22 $150–$160 had already passed at check. Portland Japanese Garden Shinji Suzuki July 19 $35/$45 remains a strong lecture/demo Learning alternate. Nature’s Way / Smith-Gilbert held per standing notes.)

This is a garden-center-hosted education address. Do not treat this Learning card as a retail bonsai specialty-nursery listing or as a membership club meeting hall. The category remains Learning even though registration uses an Eventbrite ticket linked from the first-party classes page.
Notes
- Category is Learning. This is a first-party workshop announcement with a printed date, fee, materials list, and venue. It is not filed under Nurseries for this ship (Bonsai Heirloom covers Nurseries) and not a club.
- The Nov 14, 2026 11:00 am–12:30 pm session at $90, the materials list, and the 106 S. Greensboro Street venue come from official Fifth Season pages checked on 2026-10-02 and may change. Prefer the Carrboro classes page over Eventbrite if the two disagree on end time.
- Geographic spread: Carrboro NC is away from Tue Toronto Learning, Mon Fort Pierce FL Learning, Wed Columbus OH Learning, and Thu Vienna VA Learning. Same state as Mon Asheville nursery but a different metro (Triangle vs mountains).

FAQ
Q: What does the Fifth Season Beginner Bonsai class cost, and when is it?
A: The Carrboro Upcoming Classes page (checked 2026-10-02) lists Saturday, November 14, 2026, 11:00 am–12:30 pm, at $90 (instruction + ceramic pot, tree, and soil). Confirm seats on the live Buy Tickets link before treating the date as open.
Q: Where is it held?
A: Fifth Season Gardening, 106 S. Greensboro Street, Carrboro, NC 27510. Store hours printed Mon–Sat 10–7 and Sun 11–6; confirm before traveling.
Q: Is this a nursery shop listing or a club?
A: Neither, for Bonsai Plaza category purposes on this card. Fifth Season publishes a schedule-first workshop page with a fee and venue, so the card is Learning. Specialty tree retail with shop cart prices belongs under Nurseries (this ship: Bonsai Heirloom), and member-run club meeting schedules belong under Clubs (this ship: Sho Fu Bonsai Society of Sarasota). Hosting the class at a garden center does not move this card into Nurseries.
