Setup a Wicking Bed

Conserve water while producing great crops

Wicking beds are a great way to conserve water while producing great crops. And they don’t have to cost a fortune either. Join Canberra’s own ‘Wicking Witch of the West’ – Cally Brennan from Canberra Permaculture Design – who will show you how easy it is to make your own wicking garden bed or plant pot.

This workshop will be taking place at the Canberra Environment Centre's Community Garden at Gungaderra Homestead in Harrison.
