Hello Everyone. This is a quick post about my upcoming Organic Terrace Gardening Workshop in Bhubaneswar. This workshop was long overdue, but I am very happy that it is finally happening this September. It is being organised by Aikyam Arts and Events at Old Town, Bhubaneswar. The Organic Terrace Gardening Workshop is a balanced mix of classroom and hands on training aimed at imparting sufficient theoretical and working knowledge to the participants on Organic Urban Farming to enable them to be able to develop and maintain their own urban food gardens successfully. This program spans over two weeks with training being held on two days in the first and one day in subsequent weeks.

By the way, there are only 10 seats available for the workshop. So register as soon as you can. Contact and other details are given below.
