Portable Shade and Shelter

Identify what's stressing your edible garden most. Is it predators or weather or even humans?
See examples of different options for readily available shelter and shade, each with different
pros and cons in terms of cost, portability, longevity, aesthetics and ease of use. Everyone’s
garden, expectations and budget is different, but in my experience there is a solution for many
protection challenges and the most successful edible gardens use different a range of solutions
throughout the year. Please arrive at the centre 15 minutes before the start to allow yourself
time to park and get settled in.

A Sustainable Backyards bitesized workshop. An hour of inspiration to get your garden
growing. Although this workshop is free thanks to sponsorship from Hastings District Council,
please register via Eventfinda to secure your place, but only if you are definitely going to
attend. Numbers are limited, no door sales.
