Free Gardening Workshops Offered at Lanarkshire Garden Centre
Lanarkshire garden centre, Dobbies Sandyholm, is set to host a series of free workshops throughout February aimed at showcasing techniques for growing flowers and tomatoes. The workshops include the popular Grow How sessions on February 1 and 5, as well as the Little Seedlings club for children aged four to 10 on February 2 and during the school half-term break.
The Grow How workshops, scheduled for February 1 and 5 at 10.30am and 3.30pm, will provide valuable insights on growing and caring for tomatoes. Participants will have the opportunity to taste different tomato varieties, including the best-selling Gardeners Delight plant from 2024. On the other hand, the Little Seedlings club on February 2 will engage children in interactive games and teach them how to grow tomatoes successfully on windowsills. During the school holiday period, the focus will shift to growing flowers.
In addition to these workshops, Dobbies Sandyholm is also organising a “paw-fect Valentine” event for dogs and their owners. Nigel Lawton, Dobbies’ plant buyer, emphasised the rewards of homegrown produce and highlighted the workshops’ accessibility to gardeners of all skill levels.
