Why Attend “Gardening for the Planet”?

  1. Master Regenerative Gardening:
    Learn how to improve soil health, which Richard passionately emphasises, as the foundation for a thriving garden. He will teach you techniques and methods that regenerate the soil and enhance its carbon-sequestering capacity.
  2. Help Tackle Climate Change:
    Discover how you can contribute to reducing carbon emissions and fostering sustainability through your gardening practices. By improving your soil health and reducing the need for artificial inputs, your garden becomes an eco-friendly powerhouse.
  3. Boost Biodiversity:
    A key feature of this course is learning how to create a garden that attracts beneficial wildlife, including bees and butterflies. Richard will show you how to plant a diverse array of native crops to boost biodiversity and naturally manage pests without the use of pesticides.
  4. Hands-On Learning:
    Richard believes in learning by doing, and this course provides hands-on experience to practice what you’re learning. You’ll get your hands in the soil, work directly in the garden, and take home practical skills to apply immediately in your own space.
  5. Connect with Fellow Eco-Gardeners:
    Share your passion for sustainability with a community of like-minded gardeners. Not only will you learn from Richard, but you’ll also exchange ideas and tips with others on the same journey toward sustainable living.
