Her session will cover two major components:

Explore some common and not so common herbs and how to grow them successfully in the Auckland region. Herbs discussed will include coriander, rocket, dill and basil and more.
Introductory botany:

• How the environment affects how plants grow.
It would be wonderful to see you there, and to round off this series of gardening classes for the year!
P.S. We run monthly gardening classes throughout the year, and we will be running ten exciting classes starting in February 2014. Contact us to find out more! email julia.watson@ccsdisabilityaction.org.nz
