Autumnal Vegie Workshop Sat 28th April

april — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 03:26:55 +0000

Autumn is a fantastic time to be in the vegie garden! The slightly cooler temperature substantially increases the diversity of plants that you can grow. Now is the time to prep up beds for winter crops.

Renee Holbrook and Tony Marlton from Zoom will be taking you through what you need to do in your patch now for a wonderful array of winter produce. Learn how to build a no dig bed and how to keep the bugs out of your thriving broccoli.

Get busy in the garden for a winter feast!

Date: Saturday 28th April, 2012

Time: 10 am

Cost: $ 10
