Participants on the course will get their own small allotment plot to practice their growing skills and take home the fruits of their labours.
They will be able to visit their plots throughout the season and tend to their plants whilst also benefiting from 17 support sessions across the season from February to December.
A spokesperson for Aberdeen Forward said:
“Many of us are getting more conscious of how important it is to eat fresh vegetables and the benefits of obtaining them locally, rather than eating produce with many fuel miles attached. There is no better approach than growing them yourself, either in a vegetable plot at home or via an allotment garden. This course will hopefully give new gardeners the experience and confidence to grow their own.”
The course is based near Peterculter, and commences on the 19th of February 2011.
