We’re delighted to be team up with Hamish and Liberty Martin of Call of the Wild in beautiful Perthshire, Scotland for this autumnal Giveaway. One lucky winner and a friend will win a place on COTWilds, Growing Vegetables Holistically Course held on 21st September 2024. Not only that, but both will also receive five bags of Dalefoot Compost each, delivered to their door as part of their prize.
Autumn is a perfect time to take stock and plan for next year. Perhaps you’re just starting growing vegetables or would like to grow more holistically? In either case, this is the course for you.
About the course
Hamish will focus on growing vegetables holistically and all this means, no matter the size of your plot. He will cover: organic principles, soil health, growing under cover, crop rotation, succession and companion planting, green manures, herbs and edible flowers. He will also touch on natural feeds, pest control and keeping in tune with nature’s rhythm.
Add to this; how you approach the plants, care for, communicate with them, and how to harvest. Then watch how a whole new relationship opens up before your very eyes. ‘Holistic’ is wholeness and healing, let your vegetables and garden be exactly that.
