With this in mind our new one day course offers all the practical advice you need to know to grow them successfully. From border design and cultivation in the ground and containers to propagation, planting and harvesting, it will reveal how best to combat pests and diseases and store the herbs that you have grown. The course also touches on the history of herbs and their medicinal use through the writings of the great herbals and analyses the exciting prospects for their future.
