Get Gardening: Starting your patch

  • Cumberland Park Community Centre 388 Gooodwood Road Cumberland Park SA (map)

We all want to make the most of our garden spaces. It doesn’t matter if you have a large property or you’re renting in a small unit with a patio – there are always smarter ways to pack more in, get systems pumping and keep our patches grounded in local ecosystems. In this workshop with Patch of Plenty, we’ll use permaculture design techniques to assess our own gardening context and create the patch that works best for our needs, abilities and site. We will discuss observation, sector analysis and locating your patch, as well as considering our resources and physical abilities as gardeners. We’ll then look at different techniques for establishing a food-producing space including bed preparation, planting and responding to feedback from your garden.

This event costs $5 per person and is open to all residents of the Cities of Holdfast Bay, Marion, Mitcham and Onkaparinga. Reserve your place online.
