Event Description

 *Grant Watson will present a workshop that will cover similar topics. Grant's website: www.gourmetgardens.ca


We will confront the bare bones of garden needs, and begin our list of things to do, and create a do-able map of how to begin our 2011 food garden. If you're new to gardening, this is a good introductory course. Robin Wheeler is the founder of the Sustainable Living Arts School and runs Edible Landscapes

(www.ediblelandscapes.ca), on the Sunshine Coast. She is the author of Food Security for the Faint of Heart, and Gardening for the Faint of Heart.


Fee: $30 Subsidies available - see information above.
