Join the Atlanta Botanical Garden and Food Well Alliance as we continue our Plant. Eat. Repeat. workshops focused on water conservation in the garden. This summer, join us at Astro-Fain Community Garden to learn about mulching and drip irrigation!
What we'll cover:
The pros and cons of different mulch subtrates
Tips for effective mulching
How to use and maintain a drip irrigation system
You’ll leave with smart, sustainable strategies to protect your plants from heat and drought, while also reducing your water use.

The Astro-Fain garden has kindly offered to share their woodchips!
After learning about all of the benefits of mulching, bring some buckets, bags or containers to take some mulch home with you!
