Event details
Join us for this webinar to discover edible perennials, natures climate friendly food. Food growing is often the starting point for gardeners, but edible perennial plants are often overlooked. Deep rooted, sturdier and easier to grow annuals, perennials are the best addition to a food growers’ garden. This workshop will introduce you to edibles that are resilient, flavoursome and nutritious.
The session will also discuss how perennial gardens create shade and cooling while providing stunning vistas in your patch. With less soil disturbance, perennial gardening helps build healthy soil and the talk will cover how they store more carbon under our feet and in the plants themselves. As such, perennials are seen as playing an important role in mitigating against climate change. With a need to broaden the variety of food we grow to improve both resilience and nutrition, there is no better time to introduce yourself to perennial edibles.
