Duncan regularly runs workshops and education programs for local government, council groups, gardening groups, community gardens, businesses and private sectors. He is available to present these workshops at your own venue, garden or workplace anywhere in Melbourne. He can also travel further afield to deliver workshops in regional or interstate.

Workshops and presentations can be tailored to cover any of the following:

• Bugs and Pest Control
• Composting
• Soil Science
• Edible Gardening in Small Spaces
• Edible Forest Gardening
• Backyard orchards
• Espaliers
• Fruit Tree Pruning
• Irrigation & Rain Water Harvesting
• Fertilizers & Nutrients
• Pollination & Plant Reproduction
• Seed Saving
• Plant Propagation (cuttings, seed sowing, grafting etc)
• Seasonality & Timing
• Planning your summer or winter veggie patch

See the workshop page on the Leaf, Root & Fruit website for more detail on some of these topics.

Duncan’s workshops are entertaining and informative. They are delivered to engage and inspire participants. Each workshop is tailored according to the aims and the audience. Whilst many of the workshops outlined above are routinely delivered in a classroom type environment, we can also head outdoors. This incorporates practical aspects to our workshops to reinforce learning.

We can also supply handouts and other relevant resource materials, if required.

Duncan’s also hosts workshops on his 6 acre demonstration Permaculture property in Kyneton, Central Victoria. Upcoming events can be found via the events page of the Leaf, Root & Fruit website.
