Step Into the Glowing Realms of 3G-MOSSES

Official 3G-MOSSES Announcement

Living Moss Pods from the Realms of Green Grass Grove

For our Myco-Patrons and Cosmic Gardeners, 3G-MOSSES is our promise that every moss specimen has been hand-selected, nurtured, and ethically prepared from our private woodland sanctuary before it ever reaches your hands.

HAND SELECTED COLONIES MOSS POD™ CLAMSHELL DISPLAYS TERRARIUM & VIVARIUM READY ETHICAL, SMALL-BATCH HARVESTING

3G-MOSSES is the living moss division of Green Grass Grove, where we carefully harvest and prepare forest-grown mosses from our own land. These are not bleached, dried craft-store scraps. Each specimen is part of a thriving colony that has been chosen for health, structure, and long-term potential in terrariums, vivariums, bioactive enclosures, and nature-focused décor.

Unless specifically noted otherwise, every moss offering is presented in our signature clear clamshells, which we call Moss Pods™. Inside, you’ll find a living cushion of moss resting on a carefully prepared base, ready to be admired, misted, and integrated into your own little world-building projects.

From Grove to Moss Pod™

ETHICAL HARVEST • CONTROLLED PREP • LIVE-SPECIMEN FRIENDLY
Step 1 • On-Site Selection

Hand-Selected from our Private Woodland Realms

All 3G-MOSSES specimens are harvested directly from Green Grass Grove, our privately owned, ever-evolving natural sanctuary. We walk the shaded, moisture-rich trails and choose only small portions of healthy, thriving colonies, leaving the majority intact. This protects the forest floor, encourages regrowth, and ensures we are never strip-harvesting an area.

Step 2 • Cleaning & Inspection

Forest Gentle, Terrarium Ready

Once collected, moss is gently cleaned of excess soil, leaf litter, and hitchhikers. We keep the original structure of the colony intact while removing obvious debris. Each cluster is inspected for health, vigor, and color so that only robust, living specimens move forward into the Moss Pod™ preparation stage.

Step 3 • Pasteurized Sphagnum Base

Prepared PET-Grade Moisture Anchor

To give your moss a stable foundation, each Pod includes a carefully prepared base of boiled, cooled, and pasteurized PET-grade preserved sphagnum moss. This substrate acts as a moisture reservoir and structural support while helping to keep unwanted organisms at bay. The moss is placed atop this base so it remains plump, hydrated, and easy to transfer into your habitat or display.

Step 4 • Pod Assembly & Labeling

Moss Pod™ Clamshells for Display & Protection

Finally, the prepared moss and its sphagnum base are nestled into a clear PET clamshell, our signature Moss Pod™. This protects the specimen during transport, allows full visual appreciation from all angles, and standardizes sizing for events and online orders. Unless otherwise noted on the label, all 3G-MOSSES offerings are presented this way.

WHY 3G-MOSS PODS™

A Tiny Forest for Every Cosmic Gardener

Whether you’re building a bioactive habitat for live specimens or crafting a meditative desktop terrarium, 3G-MOSS Pods are curated to feel like you’ve collected your own slice of Green Grass Grove—without disturbing a single root in the wild.

Core Promise

Hand-Selected & Nurtured Until Departure

Each Pod begins as a living cluster in our woodland realms. We choose colonies for form, density, and vigor, then nurture them through the cleaning and preparation process until the moment they leave our hands. From forest canopy vibes to clamshell glow, every step is handled in-house by the 3G-MOSSES team.

  • Not bulk-imported or mass-dried craft moss
  • Small-batch, hand-built Moss Pods
  • Selected for long-term visual and biological interest
Moss Pod™ Design

Clear Clamshells with a Prepared Sphagnum Base

By default, our moss is offered in clear PET clamshells we call Moss Pods™. Each Pod contains a cluster of live moss set atop a base of boiled, cooled, pasteurized PET-grade preserved sphagnum. The base acts as a clean, moisture-stable anchor that keeps your moss plump, supported, and easy to transplant.

  • Standardized pricing online and in-booth unless noted
  • Ready to display as-is or move into your own builds
  • Ideal for terrariums, vivariums, fairy gardens, & décor
Example Offering

3G-Moss — Star Moss Pod

Our Star Moss Pods are collected from the shaded, moisture-rich woodland realms of Green Grass Grove. Each Pod features a medium-sized cushion of star-like rosettes, assembled to feel like a tiny forest canopy in miniature. When you open the Pod, you get the cool, earthy whisper of our trails—without tracking mud into your home.

  • Approx. 3–4" curated cluster size (varies naturally)
  • Perfect as a focal moss in mixed terrariums
  • Lush, living texture chosen for immediate visual impact
Special Collections

Exotic & Cultivated Mosses (Where Legal)

In addition to our local Grove-grown mosses, we may occasionally offer cultivated or specialty moss species that are particularly suited for live-specimen terrariums and advanced builds. These will only be offered where legally permitted and will be clearly marked with species, origin, and any special care notes.

  • Clearly labeled as cultivated or specialty stock
  • Chosen for unique texture, color, or growth pattern
  • Intended for responsible, informed Cosmic Gardeners
Natural Variation Disclaimer: Because moss is a living, naturally occurring organism, each Moss Pod will differ slightly in shape, density, and exact shade of green. We see this as part of the magic. Every Pod is individually hand-selected to be lush, healthy, and ready to thrive under your care.

How We Harvest

01 — Ethical Woodland Selection
Only thriving moss colonies from healthy regions of Green Grass Grove are selected. We take small, sustainable clumps—never stripping or stressing the colony.
02 — Gentle Cleaning & Debris Removal
Each harvested clump is hand-cleaned to remove loose soil, leaves, and hitchhikers while preserving the natural structure of the moss.
03 — Pasteurized Sphagnum Base Prep
Moss is placed onto boiled-and-cooled PET-grade preserved sphagnum, giving each Pod a clean, moisture-stable foundation.
04 — Assembly Into Moss Pods™
Each cluster is nested into a clear clamshell Moss Pod™, allowing transport, display, and terrarium use while maintaining health and hydration.

Caring for your Moss Pod™

A quick guide to what happens after you bring a 3G-MOSS Pod home: how to open it, how to keep it happy, and how we harvest with respect for the living systems it came from.

Quick Start

What should I do when I first open the Pod?

Open your Moss Pod in a clean area with good indirect light. The moss may look slightly compact from transport. You can gently loosen the cushion with your fingers and give it a light mist with dechlorinated water. Keep it in bright, indirect light and avoid letting it dry out completely.

  • Light mist 1–3 times per week (depending on your environment)
  • Never submerge for long soaks; moss prefers consistent humidity
  • If staying in the Pod, crack the lid slightly for airflow in humid homes
Habitat Use

Is it safe for terrariums and live-specimen enclosures?

3G-MOSSES offerings are assembled with bioactive and display builds in mind. The pasteurized sphagnum base is chosen to be a clean, moisture-stable anchor. Always verify species-specific needs of your animals and quarantine any new natural material if you maintain sensitive or high-value live collections.

  • Ideal for planted terrariums, vivariums, and bioactive displays
  • Monitor humidity so moss does not desiccate or mold
  • Remove any visible decay if your enclosure is very enclosed and stagnant
Ethics & Sourcing

How do you protect the Grove when you harvest?

All mosses are collected from our own private property at Green Grass Grove. We take only small portions of larger colonies, skip areas that are stressed or recovering, and rotate harvest zones to allow natural regrowth. We do not intentionally collect protected species and continually review our practices to remain in alignment with state guidelines and ecological respect.

Variations & Special Lots

Why does my Moss Pod look slightly different from photos?

Every Moss Pod is a living piece of the Grove. That means natural variation in size, density, and exact color is expected. Product photos and sample Pods show the general look and feel you can expect, but each cluster is uniquely shaped by the forest it grew in. Any exotic, cultivated, or specialty species will be clearly labeled as such.
