Hi everyone,

The New Year's freeskilling program kicked off with a great start this week with Laura Lambell's 'Healing with Sound' freeskill. (If you missed it and would like to know about future sessions, email us at freeskilling@gmail.com and we'll let Laura know).

Next week's freeskill is about growing food organically, with Keith Cowling.

11 January The Organic Allotment – Growing Food in the City
Understand low-cost organic vegetable production using a rotating bed system, and see how this works throughout the gardening year with the sources of nutrients and fertility available in the city.

Below is the programme for the next 2 months, and attached is the poster for January and February.
This can also be found from the link http://www.justfortheloveofit.org/public/FreeskillingPo...1.pdf
