FeedbackWatershed No Dig Gardening workshop

Alison and Ricardo have attended four Green Living Centre workshops. This is what they had to say:

"We have found the workshops fantastic - they are informative and practical.

"We are using what we have learnt everyday. We have a very small outdoor space at home and doing the Composting and Worm Farming and No Dig Gardening workshops have allowed us to have our own garden in our urban environment.

"Our new baby came with a lot of plastic and disposable packaging - the Natural Baby Care workshop gave us some easy alternatives for a more sustainable baby lifestyle. We have taken everything on board and hope that our baby also learns to become eco-friendly.

"All the workshops are highly recommended!"
