Ever wished you could transform that patch of lawn, neglected verge, or empty balcony into a thriving ecosystem? Now you can.

Join us for a hands-on workshop and learn how to create a pollinator-friendly habitat right on your doorstep. Boosting urban biodiversity is one of the most powerful things you can do to create an eco-friendly garden, and we'll show you exactly how to get started.

This workshop is for you whether you want to plant on your verge, liven up a balcony, boost pollinators in your backyard, or build community through a shared food garden. We'll show you how to reduce waste through composting and create a small plot with a big impact!

In this workshop, you will learn:

The Fundamentals of Urban Gardening: Master the what, where, when, and how to create a garden for the best ecological impact.
Navigating Council Guidelines & Landlords: Understand the approval process for verge gardens and discover creative, compliant solutions (like planters and pots) for any space.
Planting for Pollinators & People: Discover the best native plants to attract local wildlife and the hardiest edibles for a community food garden. We’ll even tell you where to get them!
Waste-Free Gardening: Learn how to create your own mini-composter, perfect for turning kitchen scraps into 'black gold' for your garden.

Get Your Hands Dirty:

This isn't just a talk! You'll participate in a practical session, helping to build two beautiful verge garden plots destined for an urban balcony in need of love. Our goal is to equip you with the skills, knowledge, and resources to confidently start your own environmental projects at home.
