Getting Started - 6 & 13 May

Begin your journey with a two-part webinar to inspire and guide your kitchen garden journey, and leave with a clear vision for your program and your next steps.

You will receive collections of supporting resources to study in your own time. Please read these prior to the workshop to get the most out of the session times together. 

Details

Over the two interactive workshops and through the provided resource collections, you will:

  • understand what pleasurable food education is
  • consider how to establish a garden and kitchen in your context
  • develop a sense of what kitchen garden classes and experiences look like 
  • explore opportunities for linking to learning
  • understand how to connect to your community 
  • see what types of learning opportunities, resources and support are available
  • ask questions about what you need to get started in your kitchen garden program.
