Take a flying leap into the growing season.

Get set up to eat from your garden all year. This 10-week course will focus on seasonal tasks and skills.
We will cover…
Growing fruit and veg
Planning your season
Working with limited space – stacking it up
Growing in containers
Building fertility – compost, wormeries, green manures
Making a garden for medicinal and culinary herbs
Fruit bush and tree pruning
Making a wildflower meadow
Avoiding pest and disease problems

The course will be based in the Eastside Roots Garden at Trinity Arts Centre. The sessions will be a mix of ideas and information indoors, followed by hands-on work in the thriving community garden. We have a poly-tunnel, compost loo, lots of fruit trees and a friendly bunch of volunteers.

The course will run from Feb 4th to April 8th.
Classes will be on Thursdays 10-12:30 am.
After the class feel free to go, or you are very welcome to stick around for lunch (bring your own) and then our regular volunteer day in the afternoon, which runs from 1 till 5 every Thursday.

The course costs £80 (waged) or £40 (unwaged).
