2nd August, 9.30am - 3.30pm
Maroochy Community Permaculture Gardens
41 Farrell St, YandinaTropical vegetables such as cassava, taro, yams, yakon and sweet potato are amongst the selection of vegetables explored on the day. Growing tropical vegetables is easy in this climate we live in and when you become more familiar with them you will realize that you can grow so much more food with very little care and irrigation.
The community gardens demonstrate these tropical vegetables with their support species and we will be harvesting these tropical vegetables for the workshop lunch where all the participants will be assigned a simple recipe to create a very unusual but delicious lunch!
This workshop will really help to expand your gardening horizons and also help you to become not only a water-wise gardener but you will have more food coming from your garden all year round.
This Saturday (and every third Saturday of the month), the Blackall Range Grower's market is on, with a range of all-singing, all-dancing, all-local produce for sale. Mark your calendar!
