Following great success both in 2021 and 2022, Golden Plains Shire Council’s popular Edible Gardens program will return with a new, free webinar series starting on 19 April at 7pm.   

The webinar series will feature 12 free monthly sessions with each session exploring common challenges for gardeners, including constraints on time and space in difficult growing climates, and how to overcome these obstacles. Participants will also have the opportunity to tackle gardening problems unique to rural areas.
