Get your questions answered and learn the nuances of balcony gardening, with this by-donation workshop.

With food prices rising quickly, now is the best time to learn how to grow a delectable array of fruit, veggies, and even medicinal herbs.

Small-space living, where a balcony or patio is the sum total of the outside space, is becoming more and more common, and needn’t be a barrier to growing your own food; so let us teach you how!

This workshop will cover:

• How to decide what to grow
• The best plant options for containers and which types of containers to use
• Which plants for growing in extreme sun or shade conditions
• How to position your pots - working with the elements
• Watering tips and tricks; how to reduce watering requirements in our hot climate
• Growing up: design tips for making the most of the vertical space

There will be 30 minutes held at the end of the presentation for questions.
