Grow with DIGA
Spring 2007
From minimizing plant growth to supersizing yields
The Disabled Independent Gardeners Association
(DIGA) has two upcoming workshops, ranging
from the minutia on bonsai to digging the dirt on
compost.
The first, held late April, features an introduction
to classical Chinese gardening, while May’s event
examines how to use compost to form the best soil
for organic vegetable growth.
“DIGA grew steadily in 2006, we held regular
workshops and saw more new participants,”
explained program coordinator Betty Cheung.
“I
shall continue to organize informative lectures
plus hands-on workshops this year.
”
Sessions get underway on Friday, April 27 with a
lecture from Sandy Knoll, president of the
Taguchi Bonsai Club, on how to create your own bonsai from everyday garden materials.
This is followed by a tour
of Vancouver’s Dr Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden.
Eastern style: DIGA members can enjoy guided visit to the Dr Sun
Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden.
