Organic Gardening Classes

Is anyone interested in organinc gardening, but not sure how it all works, or where to start? If anyone is interested, there are Organic Cultivation classes starting in September at Walkley Community Centre. The guy giving them is called Richard Clare, and, having met him, he really knows his stuff! The courses run for some weeks and are very reasonably priced. If you're keen, then he is contactable on 0114 2686727 or 07771832759.

Look forward to seeing you there (we'll have to wear badges!).

OOoo - I might be interested in this! Any idea what kind of topics the course will cover, Zweena?

hi Tracie

If you go to the website of Walkley Community centre http://www.firstreet.org.uk you will find a link to the the organic gardening course - click on groups - it is for the previous one held in January 2006 but it explains the areas covered - I must update the website!!

Best wishes

Sam

Cheers Sam, I was trying to remember and searching for a link everywhere!

I did this course earlier in the year and it was really really informative. From not knowing anything when I got my allotment to actually eating my own produce last night, great feeling! All organic too.

Richard has a website, there is more info on the course

here (PDF)

I'm going on this.

Did anyone go to the classes this week? We were unfortunately away - just wondered how it went?

Just to let everyone know Richard will be running some more Organic Gardening classes starting in January. More information on the website .
