The workshop will include a tour of the gardens, practical exercise and refreshments.

Topics covered:

We want to make the workshop as accessible as possible so are offering the places on a donations basis only. There are a maximum of 16 places for the workshop and if we were charging for the workshop it would be £25+ per person.
