Recent collaboration · Casa W Distillery
Rum & Roots brought plants into the tasting room.
Rare Form and Casa W paired a guided repotting experience with premium plants and pots, a complimentary Rumosa, cocktail specials, and a relaxed afternoon built around good drinks, good plants, and good company.
The response made the fit clear: Casa W’s casual Pitorro tasting room is a strong setting for social plant events. Follow Rare Form for the next collaboration.
What makes it work
Enough structure to guide the group. Enough space to enjoy it.
A workshop should feel like part of the gathering, not a lecture dropped into it. The format needs a clear beginning, workable hands-on steps, a finished project, and care guidance people can remember.
Materials staged for flow
The group should be able to see, reach, work, and clean up without bottlenecks.
Beginner-friendly care
Participants leave understanding placement, moisture checking, and the first steps at home.
A clear scope
Plants, vessels, travel, timing, setup, cleanup, headcount, payment, and terms are agreed before the event.

Rare Form welcomes inquiries for workplaces, teams, birthdays, showers, private homes, celebrations, and other small groups. The fit depends on participant count, ages, venue, timing, project, and availability.
The intended event scope can include the agreed plants and materials, but nothing is assumed until the project, participant count, price, and logistics are confirmed.
Potentially, yes. Rare Form is based in Reading and considers locations across southeastern Pennsylvania. The venue needs permission, stable work surfaces, reasonable access, and a cleanup plan. Share the address or region and venue details with the inquiry.
No. An inquiry begins planning. The event is not reserved until availability, scope, price, payment, location, timing, and terms are confirmed directly.
