DIY garden fertiliser workshop with Compostable Kate
Saturday 31 May from 1pm to 3pm
In this session compost coach Compostable Kate takes us beyond compost to share sustainable gardening tips gleaned from traditional practices of natural farmers around the world.
Kate will demonstrate simple DIY recipes for making chemical free fertilisers with worm castings, eggshells and weeds. And it won’t cost you much to try making these recipes at home.
What you'll learn:
How to make a DIY worm tower for a garden bed or container.
Mixing extracts and brews with worm castings to boost plant health
DIY recipe for soluble calcium extract made with eggshells
DIY recipe for liquid fertiliser made from weeds or garden waste.
