  • Pest management and Diseases

    Understand and Prevent Devastating Losses from Pests and Diseases in your Vegetable Garden

     

    We’ve all been there. Spending weeks nurturing our little plant seedlings only to come out and find them riddled with holes or so covered in aphids it feels like you’re in a losing battle. Or even worse, its almost harvest time and you find your plant is yellowing, or has a weird fuzz and you have no idea what’s wrong. 

     

    Dealing with pests and diseases is the bane of most gardeners. Often we are told spraying is the best option,  but even organic ones like soapy water or neem can harm our beneficial insects like bees and ladybugs. 

     

    That is why we created this course! Monitoring, early control and working with nature is the key to a healthy garden and a happy gardener!  Yes, you can learn on youtube, but we will give you a systematic approach to pest and disease control in a few short and entertaining videos. 

     

    You’ll save HOURS on youtube and because Bri has studied ecological agriculture at a University level and has been an urban farmer herself, you know you’re getting accurate information. And sprays should be your LAST resort so we discuss pest management in a holistic way that catches pests and diseases early so you don’t have to rely on these.
