Beginner's Gardening Workshop Series

About this Workshop

Amsterdam Gardening Workshop: This is a 3 class series in Amsterdam Noord, suitable for beginners. Possible additional dates if all seats are filled. Ever want to start an urban edible garden in the city, even with a balcony? Would you like to transform your backyard full of tiles into a vegetable garden? Or did you try to grow your own herbs/vegetables, did not succeed, and are hesitant to try again? If that sounds familiar to you, then this workshop is a perfect fit. Over these 3 classes (each about 2 hours), Amy will walk you through how she converted her tile-covered yard to a balanced edible garden. She will also provide tips on what to grow, how to crop plan and maintain a healthy, balanced garden in the years to come. What you will get in this workshop series: - Confidence & knowledge to take home and start your own small edible garden - Seeds and seedlings shared with you for your own urban garden - Practical experience through hands-on activities in each session. This will be done outside in the garden when weather permits. Examples of topics covered: - Intro to permaculture: what, why, how - What you can/want to grow in your garden and how to start (planning & executing) - Maintenance and keeping a balanced ecosystem in your garden: pests and beneficial insects/creatures *As part of the Beginner’s Gardening Workshop Series, participants will also get up to two hours of Garden Hours for free to deepen their skills and connect with the garden in a way that feels good* Dates & Time: Saturdays, 10 May, 21 June, 19 July 13:00 - 15:30 Sign up via Email: beezygarden@gmail.com Private workshop available on request
