Herbal-How-To | Planning a Potager Garden

Grab a friend and join us in-store for this free drop-in herbal education series!

During this session, Penelope will guide you through the basics of planning a potager-style garden, showing how herbs, flowers, and vegetables can be thoughtfully integrated for beauty, function, and flavour.

You’ll learn simple strategies for designing a productive, well-balanced garden. We’ll cover the principles of companion planting — the practice of growing different plants together so they benefit one another, supporting healthy growth, deterring pests, attracting pollinators, enhancing flavour, and making the most of garden space.

This session will also cover garden layout ideas for a range of spaces, including small gardens, raised beds, and container gardens, as well as seasonal timing to help you plan now for spring planting.

You’ll head home with simple garden layout plans, a companion planting cheat sheet, and some seed samples to help you get your own potager garden started this growing season.
