Growing Bananas
September dates to be confirmed
​Have you ever thought about growing bananas? Learn how to inexpensively set up a banana plot. You don’t need a lot of space, bananas can happily grow in a small urban section. Do you already have ornamental or edible banana plants? Then discover how you can maximise fruit quantity and size with the right plant care to receive an abundance of tasty fruit. Learn about safe harvesting techniques, storage tips and how to market any excess produce, plus take home your very own banana plant to get you started. Also includes banana tasting (supply permitting). Presented by two local banana enthusiasts: Roslyn, and Geoff (a qualified horticulturalist and grower). This course is coming up in September.
