Kay’s Garden Management Series

$79.99

What do you think it takes to produce enough veggies, seeds, and grains to feed two adults and two children for a full year on an omnivorous diet?

Well, you can see exactly what it takes by following along for a year in Kay’s 200sqm garden. 

While our other workshops break down the fundamentals of designing regenerative gardens, this one dives into the entirely different skill of managing one throughout the seasons.

We followed Kay for 12 months, asking for her thoughts on each season’s priorities and challenges. The result is a video series that teaches:

  • What it takes to grow highly nutritious food
  • What grows at each time of the year
  • Which foods can be stored or processed
  • Techniques for managing specific vegetable and perennial species
