Our Story
Pantry + Bench is a place to make, taste, learn, and connect.
For the past five years, Therapy Gardens has been bringing workshops, tasting experiences, garden projects, and creative programs to libraries, senior centers, community organizations, and groups across Massachusetts.
Pantry + Bench is the next chapter—a retail studio space where people can gather, discover something new, and become part of the community we've been building all along.
Stop in to see what's new. Join a mini-workshop. Reserve a coveted seat at one of our Chocolate Tasting Socials. Create your own tea blend. Build a tiny garden. Learn something unexpected. Or work with us to host a private gathering for your group, organization, friends, or family.

Built Around Community
Pantry + Bench is the retail and community hub of Therapy Gardens. What began as a small workshop business has grown into hundreds of programs delivered across Massachusetts. Along the way, we discovered something important: People are hungry for places where they can participate instead of just consume.
That's what Pantry + Bench is all about. We believe that some of the best conversations happen when people are making something together, tasting something new, sharing ideas, or simply spending time around a table.
Whether you're joining a Tea Lab, blending spices, or participating in a SoupMaster workshop, you're part of something larger than a single activity. You're helping build a community centered around curiosity, conversation, and shared experiences.
