Grow It Local – Exclusive Members Workshop

Join fellow Grow It Local members for a relaxed and practical community gardening workshop focused on connection, knowledge-sharing and solving real gardening challenges.

This session is a great opportunity to meet other local growers, build your community gardening network and share the issues or challenges you may be experiencing in your own garden.

A knowledgeable local community member with gardening experience will facilitate the session, offering practical advice, answering questions and helping participants work through common gardening problems. Whether you are dealing with pests, plant health, soil conditions, composting, seasonal growing or simply looking for new ideas, this workshop is designed to provide useful guidance in a friendly and supportive environment.

Participants are encouraged to bring their gardening questions, experiences and challenges to share with the group. You can also send your questions or enquiries by email before the workshop so they can be shared with the facilitator in advance. This will allow the facilitator to prepare advice and provide practical answers during the session.

The deadline for submitting questions or enquiries is Sunday, 4 October 2026.

This workshop is dedicated to Grow It Local members and aims to strengthen our local growing community by creating a space where members can connect, exchange knowledge and feel more confident growing at home.
