About

Welcome spring at The Cape Community Farm with this practical six-week horticulture program designed to build your gardening confidence, skills and knowledge in a friendly, supportive small-group environment. The program begins on Wednesday 21 October, from 2:00–4:00 pm, and continues every Wednesday for six weeks, with the final session on Wednesday 25 November.

Across the six weeks, you’ll learn from our resident Farmer, Adrian, with practical sessions covering:
• Composting and building healthy soils
• Plant propagation
• Plant selection and planting
• Garden management and maintenance
• Pruning trees and shrubs
• Water conservation techniques
• Irrigation systems

Each session will include hands-on practical activities, along with plenty of time for questions, discussion and sharing experiences. It’s a great opportunity to learn not only from Adrian, but also from each other’s observations, successes and challenges.
