Morning Session 1 10:30am — 11:30am Sarah will guide you through the principles of the veg, salad, edible flower and herb cut-and-come-again philosophy - how to get a lot of produce from minimal space, plus crops that you can almost chuck in and ignore.

And there will be herb and salad leaf tasters, too.
