Edible & Organic Gardening, Sustainability Workshop
Date/Time: 17th Feb 2010 6:00pm-8:00pm
Location: Paddington Community Garden, Trumper Park, Paddington.
More information: Melissa Allen, Environmental Education Officer, 9391 7095.
Come along to this free, interactive workshop and learn how to grow your own edible organic garden in the space you have, while being inspired by the fruits of the labour of Woollahra’s very own community gardeners.
Suitable for home owners and renters, in houses or apartments.
Growing your own edible organic garden is in reach whether you have a large backyard, or only a tiny balcony.
Topics covered will include:
• what is ‘organic’ and why it is important,
• soil preparation, and
• how to set up a no dig fruit and vegetable garden,
in whatever space you have.
The workshop will be held in Woollahra’s recently established Paddington Community Garden, Trumper Park (access via Quarry Street). The garden site is located at the rear of the Palms Tennis Courts, adjacent to Council Nursery and Paddington Bowls Club.
This is a great opportunity to connect with others in the community, get outdoors, be inspired by other local projects, and gain skills and ideas for your own home.
Light refreshments will be provided and bookings are essential, as places are limited.
