Better Vegetables Next Year?

planning a vegetable garden

September 3, 2022 at 10:00 - 12:00

Cost: £40

September is an excellent time for planning a vegetable garden and this workshop is for all those who’ve had some vegetable growing experience but have had a few ups and downs.

After a look at the specifics of growing particular crops there’ll be consideration of some of the common problems that can be encountered and how to tackle them. A particular focus will be planning to expand the range of crops grown and getting better use of space by successional sowing and planting to give fresh vegetables at all times of year.

We’re delighted that Tony Chalcraft will be joining us again to lead this course in 2022

Using organic methods, Tony has grown just about every type of fruit and vegetable that can be grown in the North of England. He specialises in having fresh produce all through the year, mainly grown outside, but also using greenhouses and a polytunnel. It is this expertise that make his courses here so popular.

All workshops will mainly be held indoors, but you will get an opportunity to see the vegetable garden here at Stillingfleet Lodge as a reference point.

“What a great morning listening to Tony and Jane share their vast knowledge about veg growing. I loved their approach in a relaxed, friendly and so informative way. I have dabbled at veg growing for years so not quite a novice but I learnt so much. Great venue, well organised and booked on 3 more, thank you”

All courses include entry to the garden plus welcome coffee and biscuits. Unless stated,  materials are provided and you will leave each workshop with plenty of reference information.

Workshop fees cannot be refunded if you cancel less than 7 days prior to date of workshop.
