Join this urban gardening workshop in London and discover how to create a thriving green space within the city's unique micro-climate. Led by Danny and the team, who have successfully created countless urban gardens, this intensive one-day session is designed to guide you through the essentials of making the most of your potential planting area.
Whether you are just starting your gardening journey or looking to revitalise an existing space, this workshop will energise your thinking and help you view your garden in a whole new light. You don't need to be an expert to attend; the course covers everything from initial site assessment to practical planting strategies, teaching you how to work with nature while being mindful of your environmental impact. You will learn how to make the most appropriate decisions for your specific space, ensuring your garden is a contribution to the local ecosystem rather than a drain on resources.
During the session, you will explore:
  • Site, aspect, boundaries, and screening – satisfying nature's needs and your neighbours' aesthetic sensibilities
  • Rising to the challenges of your own individual site
  • Essential hard and soft landscaping decisions
  • The art of planting – understanding evergreens, deciduous trees, shrubs, perennials, and climbers, and knowing what, when, where, and why to plant for London's climate
You'll leave the workshop with a wealth of knowledge, professional insights, and the confidence to take the next steps in planning your own distinct urban paradise.
Please note:
Participants are encouraged to bring along measurements of their gardens in metres and centimetres.
