The Secrets Of Growing Organic Vegetables
There seems to be a new and wonderful trend spreading around Singapore.
It is really heartwarming to see more people getting interested in Growing their Own Food at home.
While the majority of our students used to be Senior Citizens or Retirees, lately we begin seeing more young career people signing up for our Organic Gardening Workshops.
Many would prefer moving towards the ‘Organic Soil-Based Growing’ direction, while others would prefer trying the High-Tech Soil-Less ways.
Regardless of the methods, the real challenge for every new gardener starts in the beginning.
Some of the challenge you might face could be:
-
How do I start? What kind of soil should I use? How do I set up a system?
-
I don’t have green fingers. Why do my plants keep dying? I am a plant killer!
-
I don’t understand what those books or videos are talking about. Help!
-
I can’t find any good gardening advice. Everything I tried always seems to fail.
As there are many challenges in the garden, some would just give up.
Wouldn’t it be easier if someone could give you a tip or two to keep your plants alive? Even better, step-by-step guidance from experienced Gardeners/Farmers who’s been there and done that.
It is really a wonderful experience to able to grow a flourishing organic garden with an endless supply of Nutritious Vegetables for your family?
YES, YOU CAN !
Over the past 10 years, we had the privilege to train over 20 thousand participants with countless success stories to share.
Green Fingers is assured in all our Organic Gardening workshops.
