Common Growth has teamed up with Grow Wild to offer a further series of permaculture workshops at the garden on Sandbourne Road (Telegraph Hill, SE4 2NS) this year. The workshops will cover a variety of topics, and some will be specifically aimed at kids, so there’s something for everyone.
If you would like to attend any of the courses, or like more information, then please text Rich on 07901 360321 or email commongrowthuk@gmail.com giving the name of attendees and a contact telephone number.
