Save Water. Making a Wicking Bed to Grow Vegetables

Did you know that any water holding container can be used to create a wicking bed that will allow vegetables to draw water as they require it?

Join Robyn Brown, from Waste Is My Resource, for a pleasant evening workshop on the deck at Environment House, to learn how to set up a simple wicking bed in a plastic storage tub.  This is perfect to grow lettuce or herbs and keep close to your back door to pick as you need. 

This simple technique can then be adapted to a container that you have, small or large. Environment House has several old bath tubs utilising this technique.
