Forest Garden Maintenance: volunteer day and workshop

An open volunteering day run by Permablitz London to prepare our two forest garden areas for winter: we will be cutting back and mulching, planting some bulbs, collecting seeds and adding some new plants.

There will be an educational workshop that explains the forest garden design and principles, and introduces the plants. One of the areas showcases native UK plants so you will be able to find out about these along with other unusual edible perennials, shrubs and trees.

A hot lunch and refreshments will be provided. RSVP is essential (for catering purposes). Please contact Permablitz London if you would like to take part on: info@permablitzlondon.com

Permablitz: Planting a native forest garden

Come and join us for the third permablitz to implement a project funded by ‘Grow Wild’ (Royal Botanic Gardens Kew) to create an area of forest garden to showcase edible, wildlife-friendly plants that have been growing in Britain since ancient times. We will be preparing the soil and doing a lot of planting, some from seed. We’ll also be setting up a shelter area with trellis for native climbers. 

Mini-workshops will cover ‘what are native plants?’, an explanation of Forest Farm Peace Garden’s forest garden design and this new area being established and ’the best way to establish new plants through their first year'. 

A lunch of soup, bread and snacks will be provided. You are welcome to bring snacks to share.

RSVP Essential: Please register your place here
