Drought proofing your garden

Whether it’s a La Niña year this year or not, drought is set to be more the rule not the exception in the future. In the city we can still grow much of our own food through water efficient planning and gardening. Topics covered in this session include garden design for shelter from hot sun and winds, tank solutions, how to water at the right times, irrigation systems, working with slopes, greywater systems, water-hardy plants, and some innovative water saving solutions such as wicking beds. Covers the basics of everything you need to know to grow abundant healthy food while minimising water use.

This event is being run in partnership with Braybrook Community Hub.

Thursday 14 November, 10am-12pm. The event is free but bookings are essential.
