Grow Your Own Kai - In Containers From Your Own Compost
Want to grow your own fresh kai but only have a balcony, patio, or courtyard? This hands-on workshop will show you how to grow spring vegetables and herbs in containers - a flexible, low-cost way to turn even the smallest space into a productive garden. Following on from our winter edition, this is the second workshop in our seasonal container growing series, with a focus on getting your spring garden thriving using your own compost.
This workshop will cover:
- What to grow in spring, including leafy greens, herbs, and root vegetables
- How to set up containers - choosing the right size, drainage, potting mix, and using your own compost or bokashi soil
- Feeding your plants with DIY fertilisers, spotting nutrient gaps, and refreshing tired soil
- Creating ideal growing conditions with sunlight, watering tips, wind protection, and natural pest control
- Keeping your garden productive by harvesting, replanting, and rotating crops throughout the season
Please bring your own container(s) - buckets, storage bins, flexi tubs, or old drawers all welcome. We will show you how to safely repurpose them.
Spaces are limited, book now to get growing this Spring!
