Forage Gardening Workshop
Event description
Forage gardens are beautiful, diverse and abundant habitats that connect us to an ancient way of being, in harmony with nature’s rhythms. The role of the gardener is one of intuition, reflection and nurturing, with moments given to tending here and there.
Learn how to turn your yard into a thriving, vibrant ecosystem that gives you year-round food and requires minimal time, physical effort, or money, especially once established.
We will chat about
- Why forage gardens are so enjoyable
- How to see your garden and soil as ecosystems

- Tips and tricks to create a forage garden, including; ways to connect, getting started, plants and propagation, and soil health.

The workshop will be facilitated by Leila Alexandra, who runs Barefoot Food Gardens, offering edible gardening guidance. The workshop location is Leila's 6 year in the making rental forage garden, Awara Garden, in Pascoe Vale South.
