Dabbling in DIY: Indoor Gardening Course

How's this for synchronicity? A course on growing your own organic veggies and herbs, run by the nice people at The Organic Centre in Co. Leitrim. And not just any old growing but indoor growing, so even those of us living a garden-free life can benefit. Now, I have to be patient because the course is not taking place until next March. In the meantime, The Organic Centre guys will be publishing a full programme of courses on their website at the end of November 2009, so there should be plenty to keep us occupied while we're twiddling our green thumbs, if that's not a contradiction in terms. *The* Course When: March 27th Saturday 2010 What: Gardening in small spaces and urban gardens Who is running it: Ingrid Foley Course description: Would you like to grow your own organic vegetables and herbs but feel you don't have the space?
