About the Event
Unlock the secrets on how to grow organic veggies and create wicking beds for a thriving, water-smart garden with Fiona Blackham from Gaia Permaculture.
During the workshop, you’ll learn:
· Organic gardening, where to start and how to get the best use of space
· Soil and composting – what you put in is what you’ll get out
· Companion planting & crop rotation, including succession planting
· Organic pest control & soil builders for healthier plants
· What to do with the excess produce
We will also look at how easy wicking beds are to build and why they are such a great way to reduce your water use whilst still growing healthy and nutrient rich veggies and herbs!
This workshop has been organised in partnership with Gidgegannup Men’s Shed.
They will be providing a free BBQ prior to the workshop at 11.30am to which all attendees are invited.
