Dobbies to host two free gardening workshops in Morpeth and Ponteland
The garden centre chain’s next Grow How session will be held on Saturday, January 6 and it will showcase how to grow microgreens – including basil, coriander and arugula.
Microgreens can be grown all year round in almost any container, from recycled cans to seed trays, and should be ready to harvest a few weeks after seeding if moisture and light are maintained.
