3 - Terrain Events

Founded in 2008, terrain transforms the local garden center into a celebration of nature. Inspired by the idea of merging house and garden to create an experience for the senses, our garden centers in Glen Mills, Pennsylvania and Westport, Connecticut cater to our customer with a curated assortment of plants for all seasons, as well as inspired items for the home and garden. Situated in luxurious indoor-outdoor environments, our on-site nurseries are each flanked by a cafe and garden terrace, providing the ideal environment to host events and workshops.
Our first event venue at the Flagship Glen Mills location, aimed to create an immersive natural experience and an environment where customers could come to unwind, explore, and celebrate occasions big and small. It was here that Terrain Cafe grew naturally from a small cafe serving coffees and small bites, to a full-service restaurant serving brunch and dinner – both featuring our signature flower pot bread – out of a beautifully refurbished greenhouse.
Following the success of our Terrain at Styer's property, we opened Terrain Gardens in Devon in 2018. The newest space offers an expansive, horticultural retreat that beautifully pairs indoor and outdoor spaces for celebrations of all kinds. Located in the Main Line suburbs of Philadelphia, the venue combines elements of rustic charm with modern elegance and amenities to create a venue unlike any other in its region. The venue is part of the lifestyle center, Devon Yard, where it is situated adjacent to the terrain nursery providing a seasonally evolving backdrop for all occasions.
