Are there still tickets for the biodynamic workshop?
I am wanting to learn as much as possible about organic and bio dynamic gardening though I am a complete novice! I was at one of Dr Compost’s talks in Queenstown end of year 2011 which was great about building a raised vege garden.
If I can’t pop into Wanaka Wastebusters as I live in Queenstown, can i reserve a ticket and send the money?
Cheers Clarice
