Seed Sowing and Herb Cuttings @ Asthall Manor
Runs until Sunday, 19 April 2026 (See all dates)
- Time
- 10:00 - 16:00
Join us here at Asthall Manor, Burford, Oxfordshire, OX18 4HW for a weekend journey through vegetable and herb propagation for your healthy food-growing needs.
Complete beginners through to keen amateurs all welcome.
Good, home-based plant propagation is core to achieving the successful growing of healthy, nutritious food. It’s also a great way to save money, reduce your carbon footprint and minimise your impact on the environment. Starting a healthy new baby plant off in the best of conditions is one of life’s joys.
In this two-day deep dive, you will learn the fundamentals of different propagation techniques alongside a bit of helpful theory. This will include understanding and making your own seed compost, best practice seed sowing, root cuttings and softwood cuttings of herbs, along with tips for the aftercare care of your seedlings. During the workshop you will carry out some fun, practical work to embed your learning, taking a few of your sown seeds and cuttings home with you.
