Planning your vegetable plot for a year-round harvest

This workshop will provide information and practical tips to help plan and prepare a small vegetable patch to grow abundance throughout the year. We will look at the importance of soil, the life cycle of plants, rotation, succession and companion planting, to help making a small garden flourish all year round. The workshop will take place mostly indoors; we’ll also take a look at how we have planned the Alibi garden to grow veg all year round.

The workshop is run by Clémence Scalbert. She has set up and run St Thomas Community Garden since 2019, and set up Zero Mile Gardens in 2024 in St Thomas, Exeter, to support food growing in our community. She has a City and Guilds Certificate in Organic Horticulture, a Gardeniser Diploma, and is an alumni of The Soil Association’s My Food Community Programme.

This workshop is the final workshops of a series supported by the Growing Communities Fund, Devon County Council.
