On September 21 at Knivsta municipal house, we are organizing an evening with inspiration and useful information about preparedness gardening.
This is an evening for you who want to start gardening and need help and encouragement to get started. Feel free to bring your children and neighbors! It is also a great opportunity for hobby gardeners who want to grow more for preparedness and network with other gardeners.
At the fair, you will be able to meet a gardening coach who will help you get started. There will be children's activities, gardening associations, inspiring examples, tastings of ”preparedness food,” and the opportunity to learn more about the municipality's work regarding gardening and preparedness.
For those who want to stay and delve deeper, Pia Cederberg from Grounded education and preparedness will hold an inspiring lecture on preparedness gardening and edible perennial and wild plants that you didn't know you could eat.
