The workshops were interesting and informative led by landscaper and horticulturalist Jason Greenwood and composter extraordinary Haley Atchison. The demonstrations were excellent and the participants had many questions.

Lunch was great and the weather lovely!

Wisely, Jason explained that we cannot save our earth but the earth can save itself!

For more information the questioners were directed to Gardens.com and a book by Steve Soloman entitled “The Intelligent Gardener”.

Naturally, folks wishing to gain gardening skills are welcome to contact, join, volunteer and participate in ongoing events sponsored by our illustrious Cowichan Green Community.
