Plant Now, Save Later – Spring Bulbs & Smart Autumn Gardening

Saturday 17th October, 10:30am-1:00pm, £29.50 (+£1 bk fee)

Navan Centre & Fort, Armagh

Join Kerry Connolly to discover simple, practical ways to save money and garden more sustainably this autumn. Learn how to make your own leaf mould and compost, overwinter plants, take hardwood cuttings and make the most of what you already have in the garden.

The workshop will also include a hands-on session showing you how to create a beautiful spring bulb mini planter using the ‘lasagne’ planting method, layering bulbs for a succession of colour next spring.

All materials are included. Everyone makes a small bulb lasagne in a 25cm or equivalent plastic planter featuring 3 daffodils, 5 tulips & 11 muscari.

A relaxed and practical workshop packed with ideas you can put into action straight away.
