An afternoon on the Smallholding
Growing & Tasting - A vegetable growing workshop in Somerset, including lunch.
Join Grace for a “Grow Your Own Vegetables” workshop on our smallholding in Wedmore, Somerset*. Set within our no dig vegetable garden, this hands on session is ideal for beginners and enthusiastic growers who want to learn how to grow healthy, productive crops with minimal effort. You’ll learn the foundations of no-dig gardening, how to prepare and maintain beds, make compost, sow and transplant seedlings and improve soil health naturally - with lots of tasting along the way.
After the workshop we’ll share a seasonal lunch made with produce from the garden, with time to ask questions and chat about your own growing plans. Please email us with any allergies and dietary requirements upon booking to thelittleholding@gmail.com
