This permablitz will be preparing Debbie’s allotment for the winter months: laying down a no-dig mulch and sowing autumn vegetables including onions, garlic, broad beans and peas. We will also be building a fence out of recycled wooden pallets on the plot. Lunch will be made from food grown on the plot.

Mini workshops will include:

• Vegetables you can sow in October/November to harvest in spring

• The benefits of mulching your soil over winter

• How to build a fence out of recycled wooden pallets

Permablitzes offer the chance to learn by doing: the mini-workshops explain the how and why for what we are doing and then you take the practical action so they provide a great way to learn. They are based on the principle of reciprocity so once you have been to three permablitzes you can apply to have one in your own space and apply to join the Introduction to Permablitz Design, a free introduction to permaculture design course that we will be running in September.

RSVP Essential: if you want to come along you need to let us know so we know numbers for lunch, which is provided, and so we can give you all the specific details. Contact us at info@permablitzlondon.com letting us know you want to join Debbie’s Allotment Permablitz.
