How To Create A Garden For Free: propagation techniques

Learn how and when to propagate all sorts of plants. In this half day workshop we will focus on sowing seeds successfully, dividing plants from established clumps and taking cuttings. We will have several plants for you to practice on and you can take home all your efforts.

The day will start at Helen Browning’s Royal Oak pub with an introduction to the workshop. The session will be a mixture of theory and practice, based in and around the pub and garden. We will enjoy a hearty lunch at the pub where there will be an opportunity to ask further questions.

Tea, coffee and lunch are provided.

This course is aimed at all gardeners, whatever size of garden or allotment you may have. We have a limited number of bursary places available for those on low income or who volunteer at community gardens or allotments. Please email louise@helenbrowningorganics.co.uk for details.
