Get to know the weeds in your patch with Chris Rockley

Get hands-on with weeds and know how to tackle them! Join local ethnobotanical enthusiast and forager Chris Rockley for a practical workshop that will transform your view of weeds -from pesky invaders to valuable garden allies.

Explore how to:

• Identify local weeds at different stages, from seedlings to adults, and discover when they’re most likely to appear.

• Understand weed reproduction cycles & seedbank and learn how to use this knowledge to your advantage.

• Master simple, effective hand-removal techniques - ditch the chemicals and keep your garden healthy.

• Turn weeds into resources: use them as mulch, fertiliser, or animal fodder, and learn which ones are edible or useful (and which to avoid).
