29th May 2024: This workshop, run at Kyle of Sutherland Kitchen Garden in Bonar Bridge explored the incredible subject of soil health, and how if we look after our soil, then we benefit not only the plants that we grow, but also our own health.
What I learned …
“How to make and use comfrey tea”
“I learned lots. I’m a complete beginner. I now have 2 compost bins and more knowledge of what to do with them.”
