Back by popular demand is our half day course aimed at backyard gardeners, urban Gardners, small market gardeners, permaculture practitioner's and general growers that want to produce all their own food whilst creating their own closed fertiliser, and much loop, without ever having gaps in vegetable production. This is a relaxed course jam packed full of a huge amount of information in an easy to understand 100% practical hands on way, as we all take a section of bed/land and fully convert it under guidance & training into veg production while running through the full dynamics of principles involved.
