SERIES PACKAGE - Carbon in the Garden
Description
Our gardens have a significant impact on climate change. In this series, we'll explore how to lower our carbon footprint by growing some of the most carbon-intensive items, like herbs, tea, and cut flowers.
We'll also dive into how planting native grasses and incorporating carbon-friendly greens—like edible weeds—can help us store more carbon. Join us and discover how your garden can make a difference!
