Event Description
Grant's website: www.gourmetgardens.ca
Getting the most out of a normal urban garden can take imagination. This class assists us to boost production through a deeper understanding of microclimating, and of lateral growing, food cycles, succession planting, "shoulder" cropping and much more.
$40. Subsidies available. Please see information above.
Registration opens in January.
Robin Wheeler is the founder of the Sustainable Living Arts School and runs Edible Landscapes (www.ediblelandscapes.ca), on the Sunshine Coast. She is the author of Food Security for the Faint of Heart, and Gardening for the Faint of Heart.

The session was jam packed full of information. Curtis Stone used a powerpoint presentation to illustrate the low cost and high cost options. Each segment was about 1.5 hrs long and he gave a lot of examples of his own situation. Lunch and a workbook were provided. The session ran from 930 to 415 pm and it was well worth the $100 cost.
