Event Details
Although this is the rainy season, years of drought have taught us that water is a very precious resource. This workshop will focus on water wise management of the home garden, including:
- Methods to improve soil to increase the water holding capacity and decrease evaporation;
- Learn how to determine what water requirements are for certain plants;
- Information on planning your garden to group plants with similar water needs together;
- Use of efficient watering systems to decrease weeds.
