If your ecosystem isn't healthy, you won’t get healthy plants!With last summer being one of the most challenging since possibly 1976, we need to rethink how we garden and grow food.Our regenerative methods of growing food are centered entirely on creating climate resilience, reducing watering needs and labour, whilst protecting your crops and plants.We build resilience in soils; quality and quantity, without the use of chemicals, as well as whole ecosystem planning, pest resilience and reducing the effects of extreme weathers.A one-day deep dive into creating healthy ecosystems for your crops, designed for beginners and existing gardeners alike.Topics include:Future proofing your growing spaceMicroclimatesBuilding resilience into your systemReducing water useEfficient designNo dig principles and benefitsPlants for future proofingEffective use of trees and shrubsPlease note, as a small non-profit organisation, it's not sustainable to offer refunds.If you need to cancel your place up to one month of the course, you will be offered a credit towards another workshop.After that time, we can only offer a credit if we have been able to re-sell your place on the course.Please wear sturdy footwear and dress for all weathers!This course is delivered outside on site, and the ground is uneven. We will spend some time under cover in the polytunnel / grlasshouse.The venue is rural.The nearest train station is Taunton.By following our methods, you can create a healthy ecosystem for your plants, with maximum crop output and minimal labour input.Healthy ecosystems create strong and healthy plants able to resist pests and diseases as well as coping with extreme weather.We will be inside and outside with a mix of discussions, site exploration, practical activities outside, getting hand in soil and more.This is not a deep science soil session - Elaine Ingham offers incredible expensive courses for this - it is a very practical guide which you can apply at home or in your market garden which will increase your produce and reduce your work.Quick wins for minimal expense and time.Whether you're a seasoned gardener, grower or just starting out, this event is perfect for anyone interested in sustainable soil management.Next steps:Attending our SELF SUFFICIENCY or SOILS courses or some of our online courses*Booking onto one of our courses adds you to our mailing list, you can opt out at any time, or email us to request you're not added.

I have never been a very confident gardener but the courses I have done have provided me with such a wealth of information and expertise that I now feel encouraged to give things a go.Lorna, Wantage"Very interesting and supportive. It has given me the confidence to research and try things I hadn't thought about before. Thank you Rachael"Sarah, Berkshire"Urban Design OBU benefited greatly from a workshop on urban food production using the UFP toolkit by Rachel Hammond of Edge landscaping. The students managed to develop a masterplan for a global city site measuring the productivity of their designs, management issues as well as understanding the social and environmental benefits of UFP. The workshops are compelling and effective for valuing UFP."Regina L.
