Companion planting
From the Ground Up is a five part workshop series on how to garden and grow plants sustainably. The methods and practices in the workshops are designed to restore and nurture the environment and to assist you in growing your garden harmoniously with nature. Each workshop is independent of the others and you do not need to attend them all. This month’s workshop provides advice about combining plants and companion planting. Plants can be combined to be mutually beneficial to each other by providing natural pest repellent or fertiliser, acting as taste and growth improvers, or working as pollinator and beneficial insect attractants. The practical activity is making a container garden using companion and seasonal plants. Please wear a hat and enclosed shoes; and bring a snack and keep cup or water bottle. This workshop supports the Botanic Gardens' commitment to creating a plant loving community dedicated to putting the 'plant back into planet'. Venue: Meet at the Kitchen in the Garden. For more information, email [email protected]
The Art of Tea
Making tea is an ancient art – long practiced in both China and Japan. If you are interested in the history and tradition of tea and want to experience more than an afternoon ‘cuppa’, then this is the workshop for you. Delight in the subtle delicacy of a green or yellow tea, imbibe the robust taste of a rich red, or experience the delight of a fermented pu-er tea. Whether you prefer earl grey or oolong, we’ll find the tea for you. Learn how tea is made and the proper method to brew your tea of choice. Due to the length of this workshop, please bring a snack for yourself. This workshop supports the Botanic Gardens' commitment to creating a plant loving community dedicated to putting the plant back into planet. For more information, email [email protected]
