Correct pruning is beneficial to your trees and shrubs and increases durability and strength, as well as maximising the health of the plants in your garden. It also provides an opportunity to retain heritage seed and plants in our ecosystems.
As all green thumbs would be aware, new plants can be expensive! Propagation allows you to create new plants from seeds or prunings and is a fun and low-cost way to get more plants in your life.
Participants in the eco workshop will receive a variety of prunings to take home and continue propagating in their lovely Kimbriki Compost pots.
What will participants learn and what skills will be gained?
- Learn correct pruning techniques for a variety of situations.
