The Erasmus+ project “Craft Skills for Garden Conservation” (CSGC) offers skills and training opportunities to the heritage gardening community. Join us for the first two webinars in February!
Heritage gardens require a huge amount of knowledge and skill to maintain and develop. CSGC aims to address the loss of traditional skills by sharing good practice in nine selected fields of garden conservation and facilitating platforms for learning and sharing.
During a period of three years, several activities will be arranged:
- nine all-day winter webinars, each introducing one of the topics from the field and preparing for the following thematic workshop
- nine practical workshops to explore and train the practical skills required
- five cross-topic seminars/conferences for dissemination and sharing
