Hi, I am very interested in hearing more about your workshops. I am a beginner gardener and find value in various types of gardens, from bonsai/zen to herb and vegetable/fruit and all that is in between.
I am also about to transfer my potted trees for the winter and would like tips on how to do it safely (for the plant) and what I should do over the winter.
Thank-you so much for my garden. I am really looking forward to Spring. I can’t wait. I used to be a huge gardener in B.C. (with a greenhouse and everything!) but everything was so different here that I tried the first couple of years and became discouraged. I love this Co-op!!!!
