We'll share all the tricks and tips of the trade so you can have wonderful, fresh, organic, nutrient dense produce right at your back door.

Join Carla Weir and the team from Gaia's Organic Gardens as they share their tips for building a successful organic garden.

The Gaia's Organic Gardens team has set up hundreds of vegetable gardens over the years, right here in Perth. Carla Weir, Director of Gaia's Organic Gardens, has also been featured on the ABC ME program Project Planet as a gardening mentor.

There will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions about your garden and receive the guidance you need to get set up correctly.
