Organic Gardening

17th Dec 2022

We were super excited to have Chloe Rowe, an experienced organic gardener and qualified horticulturist, tutor a series of six sessions in our Community Garden. Funded partly through the Kaikōura District Council Community Initiative Fund and supported by REAP Marlborough, this was a great opportunity for people to up their skills in organic gardening.

Topics included: What’s organic, what’s not?, Soil science, Crop rotation/intercropping/moon planting, Compost and fertiliser, Pest control and beneficial insects, and the last week is saved for topics of high interest that come up during the course.

It was so great to see some new faces in our community garden! Thankyou to everyone for coming along and to Chloe for running this awesome course for our community!
