In-House
Courses
Below is a list of the various courses that will typically suit anyone wanting to garden for their own pleasure and increase their investment in their home, as well as for those who would like an introduction into the gardening industry as a career.
3-day Garden Design Masterclass
Course Content:
Design
Drawing
Maintenance
'Garden design' is the first step in landscaping. You cannot landscape a garden until you have designed it and, for that, you need to understand (a) how to organise spaces so that they meet your needs or that of your client, and (b) the environment to which it is attached.
Essential Steps to Gardening
In House Workshops:
Clever Plant Choices
Caring For Your Garden
Growing Your Own Vegetables
We offer a wonderful range of comprehensive and inspiring workshops on weekends on garden design, garden maintenance (basic horticulture), growing your own produce, clever plant choices and how to design an herb garden and utilise these magical plants. These five workshops are held quarterly in Kwazulu-Natal and elsewhere on demand. These are also offered as short correspondence courses.
Plant Identification Course
Course Content:
Plant Identification
Plant Research
This course is offered on demand only and is designed to further your plant knowledge by equipping you to be able to place plants into their larger families and learn how to recognise similar characteristics within those families which will make identification that much easier. We explore the many keys given in books that are designed to aid with plant identification and we will put our newfound skills to good use out in the garden and at the local nature reserve.
