Growing your own fruit is incredibly rewarding and its relatively easy to do.

This talk covers some of the most popular soft fruit gardeners grow at home and focuses on where, when and how to grow them. We look at planting, maintaining, pruning and propagating each fruit using chemical free practices including natural remedies and companion planting.

I usually cover raspberries, strawberries, currants, gooseberries and blackberries depending on the length of the talk but other varieties can be covered if required. The talk is a mix of both theory and practical demonstration.,

There is always ample opportunity for discussions and questions throughout. This talk can be made into a practical workshop, please get in touch to discuss.
