How to Survive a Difficult Growing Season  - Free Practical Gardening Workshop with Garden Organic
Advertisement
The last few years has seen increasingly variable and extreme conditions for our growing seasons, making it very difficult to produce food reliably.
In this session we will look at some of the most common challenges we are likely to face so that we are better prepared in 2025! Some of these might include a slow cold start to the season, a summer with no sunshine, a drought, an extremely wet winter, aphids covering our plants, an abundance of slugs demolishing our plants, or blight wiping out our tomatoes.
The session will include practical activities and demonstrations of how to increase the resilience of your garden at home.

About Garden Organic
Garden Organic is the national charity for organic growing. We have been around since 1958 and have over 20 000 members. Our goal is simple – to get people growing organically. We do this in lots of ways:
• Working with communities providing them with support in their growing
• Providing horticultural advice to gardeners
• Campaigning on topical issues such as the use of peat or pesticides
• Preserving traditional and heirloom varieties in our Heritage Seed Library
• Researching into organic gardening techniques
We also have an organic demonstration garden at Ryton on Dunsmore just outside Coventry, where you can book onto to tours and workshops. For further information visit: www.gardenorganic.org.uk

The workshop is free and funded through the National Lottery Community Fund.
