COOLmob Gardens Challenge… Open Day – Saturday March 14
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Desert Knowledge Australia COOLmob is presenting another FREE workshop as part of the ongoing “Gardens Challenge” project.
This weeks workshop is focused on developing a ‘family friendly’ garden relevant for suburban Alice Springs households. The garden will be transformed into a space idea for children and incorporate some lawn, veggies, fruit trees and native plants. However, the overall emphasis will be how to achieve this by using the least amount of water possible.
Geoff Miers, local gardening guru and manager of Geoff Miers Garden Solutions will be sharing his desert horticultural experience, and answering questions. The particular focus will be on garden planning and how to eliminate unwanted grass – especially couch.
Come along for a cuppa, and share ideas with other interested people…
