It’s no longer gardening as usual. With extreme weather events, including the heatwaves we’ve experienced this summer, gardeners face new challenges.
In this free webinar, award-winning journalist and author Kim Stoddart will share practical, organic techniques to help gardens thrive in changing conditions and become more resilient for the future.
Kim runs a community garden in Lampeter for Barcud at Creuddyn using low-maintenance, climate-resilient methods. In this session, she’ll cover:
- Seedling care early in the year and successional sowing.
- Building healthy soil through no-dig gardening and composting.
- Mulching and protecting soil with ground cover.
- Choosing resilient, low-maintenance crops.
- Water-saving techniques and how to make watering count.
- Building resilience in plants by avoiding overfeeding.
- Natural pest control and attracting natural predators.
- Working with stone and gravel.
- Mixed planting of flowers and edible crops
- Seed saving for long-term resilience
- Crops and plants that can be grown later in the season
Whether you’re new to gardening or looking to adapt to our changing climate, this webinar will be packed with tips to help save time and money and practical advice to help your garden flourish.
