Two One-Day Courses in Wicklow, Ireland, 6th and 7th April
Charles teaches you all about the no dig method of growing fruits and vegetables organically. This technique not only fosters healthy, vibrant crops but also prioritizes sustainability by maintaining nutrient-rich soil. Learn how No Dig gardening allows you to work in harmony with the soil, leading to robust plants and abundant yields without strenuous effort. Experience the benefits of undisturbed soil that naturally optimizes drainage, warmth, moisture retention, and crucially, carbon sequestration. (The day courses are 185 Euros per person and not £0.00 stated in this post)
Open Day Afternoon Talk for Grow for Life
Grow for Life are holding two open days at their Walled Garden. I will be there on the Saturday at 2pm and I'll be demonstrating how to create a new no dig bed. I will then be giving a talk at 4pm in the village hall which is just around the corner. Grow for Life's purpose is to nurture people so that they flourish. They provide social and therapeutic gardening sessions for people affected by low confidence, anxiety, depression or isolation. These individuals are invited to join as new gardeners.
