DETAILS
We live in an age where growing greens at home has been likened to printing your own money. With shortages and sky-rocketing prices, many have now developed a greater appreciation for these once taken for granted items from the produce shop. With good variety selection and a few useful tips, just about anyone can successfully grow their own leafy greens at home.
Join us for an informative session and open your eyes to an amazing variety of growing options, and find the path to printing your own green homegrown currency!
