Taking over the world with tiny trees...

Tim Arsenault is the founder of Bonsai Bar, a pop-up bonsai workshop held a breweries. As a self identified,  serial hobbyist,  Tim says "I get really into all sorts of weird hobbies that I find fascinating. Just to name ones that start with “B”, I’m into Birding, Boardgames, Baking and Bonsai.  My interest was first piqued by the bonsai collection at the Arnold Arboretum in the Jamaica Plain neighborhood of Boston where I used to go on picnics with my wife Annie. Later I stumbled upon the Rocky Mountain Bonsai Society’s annual member show at the Denver Botanical Gardens, and I bought a few trees from a vendor and got really hooked. Later, I took an intro to bonsai course with Hal Sasaki in Denver and heard about this bonsai artist, Ryan Neil, who does weekly webcasts on bonsai  (Mirai Live) and I’ve been looking for a way to work in bonsai ever since."
