The Program.
As usual we will have our two stages: Seasol Stage and the Garden Clinic with a great program of speakers to inform, entertain and inspire you. They will cover a wide range of issues in the urban garden. Featuring Jane and many other passionate plant growers sharing their lifetime passion for growing plants. They will cover some exciting alternatives on what is right for your garden and how to get the most from it. This year we also have two workshop stages: Posie making by Tammy and Garden Problem-Solving Workshop by Vasili. We are working with several other experts for even more hands on workshops.
At present we haven’t locked in times for speakers of workshops so come back regularly to follow the changes to the program.
