Grow Food Aotea Announces April Workshops


During the announcement, Caity Endt notes “Big focus on soil this month! Soil is something I am so passionate about, and I hope you will be too after attending these workshops. There is an extraordinary, huge ecosystem under our feet, which sustains and supports all life. Come and learn about the soil and what you can do to support it.

Plus there a seed swap and sale, and propagating plants from cuttings, division and layering for those who missed out in spring.”
