Wicking Bed Workshop


Sunday, July 28th // 9:00am - 12:30pm

Jimboomba, QLD

In this workshop you will learn about how to build a self-watering raised garden bed.
Wicking beds have many benefits, they are great for small space gardens, can be planted at a higher density, are low maintenance and conserve water.

Wicking beds are more productive than standard garden beds. They are highly water efficient due to limited evaporation.
They use 90% less water than standard raised garden beds.
Drain exceptionally well during big storm events, hence no water logged soils.
On average will only require a water top-up once a fortnight in summer and once a month during winter if building with the highest water holding reservoir capacity.
They can look really stylish without costing the earth.

In this workshop we go through:
👉 Different styles of wicking beds - different water reservoir designs
👉 How to build them
👉 Location selection
👉 Ways of filling them with grow medium
👉 Pest protection
👉 How to integrate wicking beds into a kitchen garden design
👉 How to plant and seed out
👉 Yearly maintenance
And so much more.
Get on board with wicking beds, for the many good reason - water saving, one of the highest production per sqm, ergonomic design ....
How to make your own low-cost soil mix is a very important part of the hands-on learning experience.

We will delve into the principles behind the wicking action and explore different styles of beds.
What grow medium to use, how to maintain the heath of the system, what plants to grow in and pest protection amongst other aspects.
You will leave with confidence to build your own wicking bed.
