A full-day course on composting, biodynamic gardening and seed saving will take place at Tahlee on Saturday, February 15, from 9.30am until 4.30pm for $10 per person.

Shane Martin, of Nungra Gardens, who is organising the day, said there would be plenty of hands-on skills to learn.

"It's a fun day and we will be getting down and dirty," he said.

This will include learning how to make biodynamic compost and manure concentrate, an introduction to the biodynamic astro-planting calendar and a discussion on starting a local seed-saving network.

Participants should wear work clothes, gloves, hats and boots.

Morning and afternoon tea will be provided but participants are asked to bring a plate for lunch.

Bookings are essential, with a maximum of 20 people able to participate in the day.
